2.7 meters? A decent metric for illuminating 2.7 meters square is 40 watts per square foot. You are looking at 17.7 square feet, so 710 watts is a required minimum for optimal results if you intend to populate the whole grow space.

The SF1000 is built with quality components, but it is only a 100 watt light that will struggle to flower even a single plant with decent results.

I have this exact tent spec and to reach the universal accepted light energy I run 2 150 watt lights.  
100 will be enough for one small plant and the flower footprint for good bud will be minimal but it will deliver some bud.

Run them both. Get a tool and move the panels on a tilt until the light looks flat. With that much light you can rigid mount them up high and change dimmer for ppfd.

Ideally more lighting for 2 plants, but if you want to go for it with what you have. You’ll get a harvest, but the plants will be stretchy and flowers will be larfy. You’ll get far better results with more lighting though.
