Suggestions for a 2x8 closet grow?

I'm setting up my room next week and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. I've got a 600 watt hps/mh conversion available. Was considering mounting it in the middle and putting in 2x 42 watt cfl's on each side to make sure everything gets enough light. Running 12/12 all the way through.

I'll be getting rooted clones every 2 weeks from a buddy until I can get a veg room setup. Going SOG in an ebb n flow. I'm not sure what I should be doing for nutes since everything will be feeding from the same reservoir, until I can afford seperate ones.

Is it a 2 x 8 feet or meter sized box? If its feet your going to have heat problems.

Well the closet is built kind of odd, the light will be about 2.5 feet from the inside wall, and the closet door will be open during lights on with an oscillating fan going. I'm hoping that will be enough. When I've got the money I'll probably switch to t5's since it would make more sense with my grow area.

Have any suggestions for nutes?

t5s are a type of florescent tube bulb, and they dont put off much heat at all. they are perfect for clones.
