so 18" from the wall 36" edge to edge? i thought you were supposed to center it on a sq yard so depending on the width of the reflector you would have varying distances. I have been looking into building a space myself and for a 600w it seems pretty unanimous you want to cover a sq yard.

3x3 is about the limit for 600W. But, where they overlap on the long side you can cheat 6in or so. Enough to get in some more greenage.
