    I posted about this setup in the grow room section but thought i'd come here for help on lighting.
     
    I want to grow 1 plant in a 40x40x120cm tent, that's in a closet.

    I want to get a good quality LED that will last me and is obviously right for the space and not gonna be overkill!
    I'm thinking about BUDMASTER but they look a little too intense.
    Recommendations?

    A good 100w -150w LED panel with good canopy penetration would do well in a space like that. Keep heat down too. Another idea would be to get some LED light bars in the corners and grow a taller plant. 
     
    Maximizing your space would be the challenge. Vertical gardens seem to do that well.
     
    Hope this helps,

    I received my 180w LED today, it's 27cm x 27cm it's bright as hell. Would be perfect for that tent

    It's an eBay UFO but if you don't want to risk with eBay go to Marshydro.com and they have the exact same light and I've heard nothing but good reviews. Plus for a 180w LED I payed 80$ to my door, not too bad

    This light will be able to get you a nice plant if you're only growing one, good luck! Sorry for the spam
