hi guys was looking for a bit of advice would a 600w hps and two 300w cfls be enough to cover this space to grow plants from start to finish.

Enough to start, not sure about quality finish. Why not go higher hid wattage and drop the cfl? 600w hid is good for a meter square. CFL is not high output for the watts consumed. A thousand watt would do well with that, or a 630 cmh. Both less watts than a 600 hid and 600 with cfl.

sorry for the late reply guys the pc been playing up. its 1.2 mitres x 1.2 mitres sorry so 45 inches square each way. ive seen a 8 pot Wilma system that would fit perfect. one with 6 litre pots the other with 11 litre pots both the same size both 8 pot systems but I don't know what to go for. im thinking one 600w might just about cover it. but that's about my limit as I live in a small flat. what you recon guys 8. 6 litre pots or 11 litre pots in a space this size. im looking for some good advice because after I bought it that's what I got to stick to. many thanks fellas but I need advice
