Best setup for a small grow tent?
I’m newer to the growing scene and have a 4ft tent I was given a 200w CFL hood with an in-line fan and looking to see if anyone else out has any advice for growing autos? Lighting schedule etc? Any input is great appreciated!

Texasbob has had the best CFL grows I have seen on here, he will have some advise on those. Is it a 4 foot tall tent? What size is the foot print? Make sure those pots have really good drainage in the bottom and look into SCROGing & Mainline grows.
Has everything you need to know to get started and people here are very helpful.

hipoldman also uses CFLs but his new name is The Old Man
for a small tent or closet grow i would maybe add another 200 watt bulb or consider a good T5 setup.
Also there are many decent LEDs for around $50-$75 (there are many options)
I know you were give a cool 200 watter but it kinda needs to spread to a larger footprint.
maybe to work with what youve got you could group the plants closer.. Maybe put the lamp in the center

Thanks CPW! When I was growing with CFLs I had 4 or 5 at different places to try to cover as much of the plant as I could. One CFL is going to be tough to grow one much less 3 plants successfully. I really think if you can buy a inexpensive led from Amazon. For the amount you smoke you will get the light will pay for itself in one grow. You can pick one up for under 75 bucks.
