Yes, the discussion changed to what he should use to flower in a 4x4 tent.
I suggested some 6500k cfls for the 120 jardin

The Mars will work. It's not the best, actually closer to the cheapest, most entry level LED. It will definitely work though.

That Secret Jardin light would be great, not sure on the cost.
You are going to run into a log jamb trying to veg and flower in the same space.
Clone in the top of the secret jardin, veg in the bottom, flower only in your flower tent. keep things rolling

I guess if I had the option, I'd build low power COBs into the shelves.
About 80 watts of CFL per level or 10 watts per square foot would be a good place to start. Swap for lower watt bulbs if it's too hot.

Veg and flower with the same light, but not at the same time in the same space.

Start the seeds and veg for 18 hours a day in the small tent. The 4x4 can be for flower only. 12 hours a day of light and it can not have light leaks on it when it is in darkness. Very important to be in total darkness.

4x4 can easily hold 4 plants, allowing you to perpetually harvest one every 2 weeks. The small tent can be used to veg and start seeds, providing an endless supply of vegged plants for your flower room. Perpetual harvest is a far more efficient use of space.
