:weed:4x4x6.5 flowering space. 400W or 600W HPS? If I want a nice yield whats the right move?
I also have a veg space of 2x4x5 w/ Flouros 4 T5 (2) cool (2) warm. Aside from the 400w/600w question, does the veg to flower space make sense? Thanks I am kinda new at this. But ive grown outdoor wild.;-)

Veg space should work but u may find it a little small if you go perpetual and with a 4x4 I'd not even consider a 400 600 or 1000 or even better 1 hps 600 and 1 mh 600.

yup 600 is the best hps light in my op although i do not use it i still agree it is the most efficent of all hps lumens per watt i like my 400 but i use 2 of them a 4 90w led ufo i know kinda off topic but i thought you might like to know
 
I have a tent that is the same size, and I'm using a 600w HPS w/ an MH conversion bulb. I haven't started the grow yet, but I would go with a 600. It should we worth the extra money. Are you going with soil or hydro?
 
Attitude is def the best seedbank to go with. Pay an extra 10 bucks for stealth shipping and it's guaranteed, plus you get a cool shirt or mug or wallet. I would recommend browsing Barney's, Greenhouse, DNA, and Reserva Privada

600 and dwc in 5 gallons. run co2! cool tube. for a single legal grower, I have decided this is the best setup. Same size tent. But two. One for veg and one for flower. 4 trees in flower, and 4 in veg under t5!!! fun :)

i run a 400 and a 600 in a 4.5x4.5x6.5 space using smaller reflectors. you could run 2 600's in htg euro reflectors in that space probably. if you just get one 600 get a big reflector like the cool sun.

Renyman: Thats great knowledge thanks! Any thoughts on relfectors that fit 6"cooltube by chance?
Tea tree: Same to you thanks!! What do you think of reflectors for the 6"cooltube? In my veg space i can go 2x4 x5 or 3x5x5-6. Any tent spots make 3x5x? Cant find anything... Thank you both!

Unless you live in the desert or something i wouldnt recommend the cooltube. But ive never owned one just going off what ive read.

Here's a tent with those dimensions: http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/itemdesc.asp?ic=GRGL080L&eq=&Tp=


This hood would fit:

This changes everthing. So should i ditch the 2x4x7, use the 4x4x6 for veg and flower in the 3x5x7? I think its a plan. The extra space in the veg can hold an Autoflower or 2. Thoughts on autoflower?
