Lighting overkill?
You mean your room is 120 sq. ft. ?
Two 600 watt HPS's aint even near enough for an area that size. You're looking at 6-1000 watt HPS's or thereabouts. 1200 total watts means you are only going to have 10 watts per sq.ft.....
Multiply your sq. footage by minimum of 40, I use 50, and that will tell you what you need.
120 sq. ft. * 50 watts per sq. ft. = 6000 watts
Your two 600 watt HPS in combo would be good for around 24 sq. ft. ( 4' x 6' area).
You could divide that room up and make two flower areas of 20 sq. ft. and use 1000 watts in each area. That would give ya some kick ass results.
