I recommend checking out YouTube videos on the lighting/fan/heater setup for a greenhouse. At a minimum you will need to know the light intensity requirements for the plants. The light needs to reach each plant especially the ones on the lower shelves. A light meter or equivalent app can show the amount of light getting to each plant. You have to decide which lights fit best with your set up and how to install them to get coverage for all the plants.

I recommend getting a digital hygrometer/thermometer device to track the humidity and temps in the greenhouse. That data will drive the need for a fan, a humidifier or a heater. A typical one is attached in the pic. I’ve never used this model. It’s just a sample. Good luck. 🍀

Is this outdoor? Any light that runs on a USB plug is not going to be strong enough for a tent this size.
