Swapping to LED for Summer

Currently run a 250w Hps in a 60x60x100cm tent

I want to change to LED for the hotter months ,

I want I think 300w although lots of 200w available ,

My budget is like Maxibright , Spider Farmer or Mars Hydro range ...

Would 200w be enough

I'm leaning toward 300w

Is this a good light ?

If you're in the Mars ecosystem, that's a good fit.

Why are you "leaning toward 300w"?

I'm worried from a 200w I won't get dense bud formations ?

300w is absolutely overkill, especially with that little headroom. 120 would be pretty standard in that space but always good to have a bit extra. Youll need some type of bar light to spread the light out over the space, a single board with that little head room is not a good fit. 30-40w per square foot is standard advice for leds. Wayback when leds were given fake wattages based on max spec of the diodes, nowadays its always wall draw which is more representative
