it would get way to hot with 2 600w hps running if not air cooled. for the size of your tent i would just run 1 600w hps. if you can try and get an air cooled reflector for it so you can get the light as close to your babys as possible. :mrgreen:

in a tent that size i would grow 4 to 6 plants.
if you do every think right you will get between 10 to 20 oz.
