Would you help me understanding lighting for my grow tent 3ftby 3ft. My understanding this will work for my veg to flower? If not what specifications should I look for in comparison to what I have. I really appreciate your time in advance this is real important to me thanks.

In theory, that should be enough to flower. Perhaps not with maximum results though. I might recommend something like this apparatus:

It has four separate arms that you can bend to apply light to where you specifically need it. Plants don't typically receive such lighting in nature, and I think it could benefit your plant grown indoors. It also adds another 80 watts.
However, if you are budget restricted, I wouldn't recommend getting another light. The one you asked about should initiate flowering and produce at least an acceptable yield/result.
EDIT: The recommended light was meant to be in addition to a main light; not as a light all by itself.

That's interesting, instead of just having 50% of each. I wonder if the intensity is stronger, because the mcd of red LEDs is usually 1/10th the level of blue ones from my understanding.
