Too many lights?

I have about 45, 2 foot plants that are 1 week into flower at the moment.
They are in 3 gallon pots.


I currently have them arranged in a 2 meter x 3 meter footprint with 6 x 600w overhead, 1 light for every 1m2.

My question is, If i add 2 more lights, making it a total of 8 x 600w over head.

Will I see a significant yield boost? like I am hoping for 1800 grams from the 6 lights (0.5 grams a watt) If I add two more lights, could I realistically expect to gain another 300-500 grams on top? or will it be useless overkill?

what im wondering though is if its worth it or not? will i just be spinning my wheels and be spending more on electric? or is it likely i'll notice a higher yield?

when i make my estimates/expectations for yield, should I be thinking the yield from 8 lights in my head? or is a 6 light yield plus a bonus, what will be realistic with that footprint?

its getting really cold out, so im sure i'll be good for heat issues at least

if you're only 1 week into flower when you add lights , ,depending on system and strain you could easily get a lb or two extra if you add sum light

more light = bigger denser buds

week 1 = early

do it already man every day they get that exra light they will be a extra bit happier :)

Do it, I like the 100w per plant rule, and your almost there, also 75w per square foot is pretty good too. Youll def like the increase
