Back story: this is my second attempt at indoor growing! My first attempt everything went great but it turned out to be a male and I popped one bean. Now on to the real post!
Hello there im looking to get tips on how to get the best yield from my 600w hps wing reflector(not air cooled 4x4 diy tent grow! My light can't be hung in the center as it's a diy tent so the light is strapped to one of he four top sides in the middle of its side(if that makes sense). For exhaust I have two pc fans right by the hood so Temps stay around 74-82 and an oscillating fan moving air around.

My real question would be how many plants could I fit(not stuff) in here until i can afford to upgrade and what method should i use to maximize my yield with my disadvantages?

Any and all tips are appreciated!
Thanks for reading!

9 plants in 5 gallon pots are 24 plants sog in 2 gallons. If you do 9 plants lst them. Make sure you have a good quality bulb.

My ballast is only a 600w do they carry them in 600w?

Edit: It's funny that the 600w bulbs are more than the 1000w bulb! If only i could manage that heat!
