Lighting 150w Cfl

[Langley66]

Question
In a space that was 0.5 X 0.5 X 1 (height) meters
With mylar and reflector
One 150W agro CFL is enough?
Should i buy a 250/300w?
Im tryihg to have biggest yield possibile in the cheapest way.
Gonna put in an autoflowering (maybe nl auto from rqs or the TD) in a 18 or 20 liters bucket (4 or 5 gal)
Half super soil half Coco n perlite
Gonna top n lst her so the light can hit all the buds.
First off I wanted to try a led but they're not cheap, only on eBay and a friend bought a 1000w led and the actual wattage was 112...
So an 180w UFO led on eBay would be something around 40 lmao
Sorry for the bad English

It will work with a reflector, but in that small space I would use a max 6 litre pot.

Why that small? With topping and lst I can make her 60/80 cm tall
Big roots doesn't increase the yield?

It does but it's hard to contain a 5' bush in a 2' hole not including pot height and room for the light. The smaller pot will help to keep the size down. My grow space is similar and I still have to supercrop if they get away from me.
