if thats in cm, thats a two foot by two foot tent that's 4 feet high. i wouldn't try to grow more than one at a time in a two by two, unless you're planning to sog, but that would be more of a puddle of green......

You'll need better lights for serious growing. 100 watts cfl is starting point but 200 is prefered per plant. Many smaller bulbs are better than fewer big ones. 23 or 42 wattwrs are good. I always liked 42 when i used them on my firay grows. 2700 for flower and 5000k for veg. If using both in veg and flower id go 3 to 1 5000k and 2700k iv veg and opposite for flower if you can. $200 can get you a real nice top of the line Quantom Board led or even som cobs if youd prefer. Good luck either way. Just keep cfls 2-4 inches to the plants. Any farther away and theyre really doing nothing.

Well they are autos so they can be in light 24 hours a day anyway and yeah will invest in 4-5 42w bulbs thanks for the help

No problem, not to sound rude but jist because they are autos and yes 24 hours is good, it doesn't mean you can jist let them grow with regular light sitting in the corner of the room. If its direct bright sunshine yes, but regular house daylight still wont cut it. Definitely try to get those 42 watts in 2700 as the 100 has enough blue already for veg and flower light it more important as it makes the buds. When you do want to upgrade, for $185 or adding $25 to be pre assembled, HGL has a 135 actual wattage Quantum Board led that veges 3x3 and floweres 2x2 to 2.5x2.5. Would be perfect for youre tent. Dont forget to post pics and updates and ask if you need anything else.

You're not going to get much out of that floor space and a CFL at all. In many respects, you'd be hard pressed to get any more than 1 decent plant in there. I have 4 in a 120cmx120cm floor space (the same would fit snugly in a 100x100)
