Reddit mentions of Horticulture Lighting Group 4X QB132 V2 Quantum Boards (3000K)

If youre willing to spend up to $500 on light, go with quantum boards. They're LEDs as well, but the really impressive ones. They are more efficient than old-school HID lamps, producing more light at about half the power and heat. I have a 3x3 tent also. I I'm not currently able to afford the lighting upgrade that I want to make, but this is what I plan on putting in my tent soon:

Get the 4 panels, the appropriate driver ( if you don't get a driver with high enough output, the lights just won't be able to operate at max capacity), wire it up and hang them. Boom! There you go. Incredible lighting that will get you really good results for about $250. Just my two pennies.

get Leds for sure, Hlg132 are a sick deal or the hlg288 diy kits even. hlg132 are way cheaper tho.

Your basiclly looking at 1 dollar a watt with leds.

As for no till just mix up the standard soil and let her rip. Water only is perfectly fine keep it simple.

For a 9 by 9 space thats a lot of room. What size canopy are you looking for. I run 4 30 gal totes in a 5 by 5. I would get as much soil as you can. So maybe like 8 25 gal totes if you want to fill the whole tent... Or if your trying to grow huge monsters that fill the tent. Say 4 plants in 50 gal totes.
