Bro I am sure it would ,but to be honest if this was my first grow I would spend my money on some cheap cfls some autoflower seeds where you can keep the door open an not worry about heat ,you said your not worried about smell ,a PH meter ,humidity - temp gauge, a 5 pound bag of KindSoil and be done with it. My first LED I had to send back cause some of the lights went out.I not saying that one would but you never know.
