This will increase your capacity for exhaust by almost 50%
Your light cooling and air system need to be seperate if you are going to run a 600 watt light in that space. Four fans will do it. Intake and exhaust for the light, intake and exhaust for the room. You will also want an oscillating fan gently blowing around your plant to keep fresh air around them. VV

Thanks for the advice. If the above drawing with the Can-Fan does not work we will no other choice but to add a 2nd circuit to cool the lamp on its own. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will not have to go this route. My hope is the Can-Fan can pull enough air from the lamp and room.
