It's going to depend on the number of plants you want to grow, if you have a preference of a certain type of light, how much you have to spend, how expensive power is in your area, etc.

Doesn't seem like a lot of light for that space. 2 or 3 of them may work for you depending on how you plan to lay plants and equipment out

The Mars light you are looking at says it's for a 2x2 foot area. That will do for 1 plant maybe 2.

I'm using 2 https://www.amazon.com/Spectrum-Tem...=1&keywords=FSGTEK&qid=1627337334&sr=8-7&th=1 in a 4x4 tent with 4 plants.

Need 30 watts a sq. Foot for leds
You got 18x30= 540 watts

I would recommend at least 3/4 fixtures for the space your in quantum boards are prolly the best fit for yout dimensions imo

Of course, there will be many opinions lol ...

Mine? Quantum boards would work nicely size-wise. I don't have a better recommendation for lighting than that but I would also spend some time looking into ventilation, both intake and exhaust, because high temps and high humidity will be something that needs to be controlled.
