check these out, they r the best light for the money right now,
2 of the HLG 260w XL QB’s would fill your 4x4 up and produce 1 - 2 pounds per grow.!
u could get one now and use half the tent then get the other one when funds allow.!
2 of the 260w QB’s cost about the same as a 1000w HPS set up with 5yrs of descent bulbs.
or start getting 135w boards only $200 each and one would get u started, 4 of them will rock a 4x4.

Check Craigslist and offer up you would be amazed at how many people spend a ton of money on new lights and everything else then burn up their crop and sell it all for half price.
I run 2 600w hps mh lights in a 4x4x6 grow tent with a 6in 440cfm fan I use 6000k bulbs for veg and 2000k bulbs for flower my grow journal’s here is 6 strains of fun i have pictures of my setup in there i paid 200 dollars for those lights off of Craigslist.
