Lots of options these days. 1000w HPS, 2x 315CMH, 1000w at the wall of LED. If you want to go the LED light someone else will have to chime in because I just started using one and am certainly no expert.

I run three of these Timber 3vl lights.

Model 3VL

This three (3) COB LED light fixture features Bridgelux Vero29 COBs and a Meanwell driver. Remote driver placement helps with managing heat and custom color temperatures are available. Designed and engineered to cover a 2 x 4 coverage area for full cycle/flowering.

If you are in one 5x5' site, I'd recommend a 1000W ballast with a Metal Halide bulb for veg, swapped out with a 1000W HPS for flower.

Those are bad-ass. outside of my budget for my tent, as I'd need 6 of them, but damn they're nice. That'll be what I "upgrade" to down the line.

I have one of these in my 4X8 for 1/2 of the tent and it's fantastic. I've got 2 TSW2000s on the other half for seedlings and veg.
