You should be able to find the suggested footprint from the manufacturer. I am not familiar with those lights.
I do use 7 gallon containers and run 1000w de’s, the footprint for each light is 5 ft or so but I set them up at 4 feet. In that 4 ft space I do 4 plants and veg for 4 weeks or so. I aim for 1.5-2 lbs per light.
figure out your footprint and then you should be able to plan it out. If you are going to do 7 plants, I’d veg for two or three weeks max and use 5 gals.

That’s right. The manufactures suggested footprint is for the area your light will illuminate at the stated amount. There will be overspray but the light in that area isn’t going to be as strong and will produce different then what’s inside the 3x3.
If it was me, I would use the 3x3 and add the other two lights as supplemental.
