Hello Guys,
I want to start a new setup for me. I calculated my free places , so this size is the maximum for me.

Secret Jardin 40x40x90 cm
Mars Hydro 240 W led grow light
Carbon filter with ventilation
Inside turning ventillation
6 l pot
Blue Mystic feminized seed 1
Plagron Grow mix

What do you think about from this setup?

Tanks your help, before

Sounds like you have the basic bases covered. Remember your going to want to be able to increase your light power for flower. And you are gonna want to read up on some stress training techniques as height could quickly become an issue. I've had good luck with my Mars Hydro. GL

Maybe hold off on the Mars light for now. If it's free or you already own it, I suppose it's better than nothing but not by much. If you can't afford a decent prebuilt light now, there are people on the forums happy to help with DIY setups for cheap(ish) and relatively easy awesome lights.

Keep in mind you want 30-50 watts per square foot for flowering and around half of that or less for vegative growth. Having a dimmable light can save on your electricity costs, make temperature management easier, and makes it nicer to work under.

There are several companies on the forums with good DIY components that back them up with great warranties and have been active in the community and have proven themselves well. HLG, PLC, cutter, Chilledtech, RapidLED etc.

40cm x 40cm is very small. Are you sure that mars hydro will even fit in there?
I don't know how much it costs but a HLG65 might be a better option. There are lots of options for such a small space. You could even use a 4x 15w screw in white LED bulbs with good results.

It's not just the 40x40 dimension, but only 90cm high. You won't find a light that uses less vertical space than a board or a DIY build with 280mm long strips.

An HLG65 is also what I was thinking. https://horticulturelightinggroup.com
I see HLG shows links for a couple dimmers, seems like a very good idea. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071NRKNJH

That Marshydro light will be plenty for your size tent.
I've been more than pleased with the results I get from my Marshydro lights.

HLG65 isn't enough for 40x40. I had mine in 30x30x60cm tent and it's not enough for that space. The HLG65 is the among the most useless lights I've owned, it won't keep plants short and stocky even if you keep the light a few centimeters away. The HLG40 (QB96 boards) are a lot better, but they're too long for a 40x40 tent.
