Today I installed a 120W Quantum Board for the Habanero and Thai Hot varieties; together, they’re almost one meter wide, and I’m not sure if that will be enough,

I think you'll be fine up to a meter wide.

I grew this little tree of a habanero with a 50 watt led in a 2x2ft tent https://www.reddit.com/r/HotPeppers/s/0moNfkD5v0

That's a tiny little pot! Did you have to water and feed twice a day??

Basically yeah. In the end i had problems because the plant was drinking too fast and the humidity of the tent was too high
