Yes it will grow and veg your plants up ok, but for budding a weed plant up you really need to be looking at least 100watts true power draw, i mean colour spectrum is sound but rest of it is crap man. Looking at specs its 12v x 2.5a = 30 watt true power draw.
You can get much better for that price, if it was all about looks it would be a winner hands down. You can pick up half decent led lights 2nd hand on eBay for that price and cheaper and yes even new that will perform better. A quick look i see you can get plenty half decent and better led 2nd hand as well as new from £30 to £80.
So yes id think about getting summink else for flowering. I mean even this which is a £5`ver atmo is gonna trounce that and easily out perform it when it comes to flowering plants out https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255983035364 ... R5SCspDPYQ
Anyhow it will veg you plants up cheap enough but its a bit of a waste of time if your wanting it producing buds Pork Chop. Can you not get your cash back and ill try to find ya a half decent new or 2nd hand one on eBay for a similar price ? But hit me with a pm anytime before you splash out again and ill take a look for you and find summink x10 better than this rubbish.
Old wardrobes or small cupboards are great for growing bud in too not just tents, i grow in a small cupboard.
Hey mate. Thankyou for the advice, I really appreciate offering to help.
How about this one? Any good? Looks to be more powerful than the one I have and full spectrum??

Mate I'd invest in one of the small invisible sun boards or a fecida cr600. They've both done me well.

I don't have the spare money mate. I don't walk too well so can't work, I'm just trying to do it cheap as possible.
One day I'll save up and do it but for now I'll make do with whatever I can get away with lol

Sorry to hear that mate. What we don't want you to do is keep wasting money every now n then on sub standard lighting and then it adds up to the same cost for a invisible sun or fecide light (slightly cheaper). We want you to get the best out of your grow. What's your budget mate?
