Put the plant off center. Closer to one of the corners while it’s small.. and keep the light over it but not too close to the walls, or directly over the plant. You can at least benefit from 2 of the walls on the corner of the tent, and the corner of light should be over the opposite corner of the plant. Hope that made sense. As the plant gets bigger you move it away from the corner towards the center and moving the light accordingly.
that’s the best I can come up with workin with the gear you have.

Good thinking. At least you've got 2 sides than. Why didn't I think of that, lol?

This. And rotate the plant 1/4 turn when you water. ;)
