Need suggestions on adding LED lighting

So I’m about to start my 3rd grow and now that I’ve got the hang of the growing process down I’m looking for better quality buds. Last buds turned out better than the first but still not as dense as I would like.

I’ve asked a few people here and all pointed to not enough wattage in my tent.

Right now I’ve got two lights: one is a cheap blurple full spec LED that outputs 102 watts, the other is a SunSystem HPS 150.

I’m looking for an LED to either add and run with one of these lights (possibly with the blurple for veg and with the HPS for flower) or on its own if it would be good enough.

My budget is around $200-300 and I know I’m pretty limited in that range for a good LED.
Any input from people more experienced would be awesome.

So far I’m looking at the HLG 100 v2 4000k model or the Spider Farmer SF-2000 maybe?

My tent dimensions are 2” tall, 58” wide and 22” deep, so about a 4.5ft x 2ft area. The square footage is 8.86ft although usually I run two plants at a time and they don’t take up the whole space.

Thanks!!

Can't be 2" tall, lol. Kidding man, must be a typo. I am curious how much height you do have though.

I have 3 HLG 100's and a few Rspec's now. But last night I couldn't help but buy a 260W HLG V1 since the V1's are getting so cheap. I don't even really need it, lol. I paid like $200, after the coupon code "DIY10". I was tempted to get some 135 V1's too, but restrained myself, lol. Anyways, here's a link.

I hear a lot of good stuff about Spider Farm too, and would totally consider those after all the good reviews I've heard.

A 320w kit from Meijiu will run about $250 with shipping.301H diodes.

Sorry it’s 62” currently
but now I am considering getting a tent that’s 63” tall, 36” wide and 20” deep.
It’s small but only dimensions that will fit in my space.
