[video] Looking for feedback... 4x4 Tent with 1600w HPS and 4 x T8's?

So I have added 4 T8's running down the corners of my tent. Not only for extra light to hard to reach areas like bottom and side leaves, but also to add a little diversity to the light spectrum. Is this a good idea? Stupid idea? This is only my second indoor grow, so not really sure exactly what I'm doing yet.

nice grow! some will say that 1600w is overkill in a 4x4, i say you will get some sick nuggs if you can take the hit on the electric, a 1000 or a 600w will do that area though matey

The big plant is Purple Nepal, and yea she is at about 2 weeks. The one to the right is Sour Kush and she's at about 1 week. The rest are at 3 days.

The purple Nepal started showing crystals today on the sugar leaves, I am gonna take some pics when the lights go out. I can't take pics with the HPS on because they create big black bars in the photos.

I should have waited longer for the others, as you can see they are pretty small.

Buuut, I have some new girls coming over and had to clean out the veg room...

That's the Purple Nepal from today. Crystals seem to have some sometime in the last 24 hours, like they just appeared from nowhere

I'm gonna pop all those fem seeds and use them for mothers. I'd like to grow 3-6 of each strain before moving on to a new batch of strains. Ideally, I will keep 1-3 of the best looking/smelling/smoking stains and keep them in the veg room as mothers.
