Can someone help suggest a decent grow LED for a space of 0.3m with height of 1m. Looking to only grow 1 plant on a budget.

@Eggyones, Because the grow room described in this question is only 1 meter you need a led that can be placed really close to the plant without causing heatstress. The spectrabox can be placed from 20 cm above the plant. Most leds will be still to hot when placed this close to the plant. This led is also made for close distance with the leds using 120° lenses to mix the different colours well from this distance. Next to the distance from the lamp you also lose the hight from the pot. The pot will be roughly 20 cm high so when you grow into a 1 meter tall closet your plant can only become 50 cm. The Spectrabox is more then enough for this size plant. I used to use this lamp a few years ago inside a small closet. The wattage input is only 60 watt. And you can expect 1:1 wattage : grams dried cannabis. Not bad for a 1 meter closet if you ask me.

The output of the spectra box is probably JUST enough for 1 plant in small conditions, I just don't like blurple lights. Probably a good suggestion though 👌

High topplant, Spectrabox 90 watt. I did a few mini closet grow with this lamp and it can hang really close to the plant without heatstressing it. Just buy or make a scrog net so that together with training her you can control the size of your plant. Happy Growing! 😋

If you had more height I would say mars T600, but that's other end of scale solution, bit overkill.

I would think T5 tubes for 0.3m with low height available, a decent led is going to be hot
