I believe this got answered before we lost some post. But since its in 3 other sections I will try to answer you before you put it in 3 more sections.
First I want to address the lights. You cant just grow off any old light. Those blue plant lights suck ass. When you say hid lights that confused me some. You want either flourescents, cfl's, metal halide or high pressure sodium bulbs. Those plant lights suck. Did I say that already? lol. The 400w one sounds like a hps or mh light and its prolly ok. The others sound fishy. Maybe if you read the bulb to us we can help.
So to me it sounds like you have one good light. The 400w. You can prolly grow 16 plants under that light. If you get a light track you can grow more. It sounds like you have plenty of space to add more lights or a track.
Not to be a dick but it looked like a few people read your post and didnt reply. Probably cause you made the board cluttered with asking the same question so many times. Try to stick to asking your question in one section instead of all of them lol. Just giving you a hard time, dont take it personal. You will probably get better results.
If you can tell us exactly what bulbs you have then I can try to help some more.

ok. let be a pain in the a$$. half of my walls are covered with industrial foil(like the 1 in the pic in top of this site) the other 2 sides of the walls are harsh briks and cant hold duct tabes and too soft for nails(keep falling and made holes to the out open area( sealed it already), so i painted the other 2 walls with reflevtive white, then a sprayed the white walls with chroom paint( used for car's wheel) that gave a very high reflect and solved the problem. i compare it to the industrial and food foil, it reflects more even than the reflector inside the HPS light. so now i have 2 75 w HID,2 150w Flourcent above. 4 (50)cm white flourecent lights standing on mortable base sorround the grow area, 2 400w HPS on adjustable tables in 2 diffrient corner aimming at the middle, An anti-bacrial window A/C(LG). swinging and aimed to the celleing. the mini A/C is 1.50 away swinging at the plants on medium speed fan. 1 standing fans swing arount the 400w. a small window, and right under it i placed a (hoonywell) large size air reycler to suck any dust from the window(when opened) and filter it. all of this in an area of 4m,L 2.5W 1.90H. can i add or reduce any thing? my temp. is between 22-27c with light on 24. or can i go a head and move my 12 babbies?
