I run a 600w HPS too, within an air cooled hood in a 120x120x200 tent. Most plants I've run under it is 8 in 10 litre pots - I am currently running 3 in 20 litre pots. I prefer less plants, more room and light for each. But others prefer more plants. I think the optimum amount for you would be 5, with a maximum of about 8.

I got 4 in 5 gal pots and it's all I got room for in 5X5 area. But I trained them to be low and wide so it kind of depends how long you veg for, how/if you train them, and how large a pot. I got pics in my sig of what mine ended up looking like to fill the light footprint.

with techniques such as supercropping and topping/fimming (read up)you can make them as bushy as you want. green poison is an indica dominant strain not sure of yield. of course depends on soil/hydro, nutes, lights, veg time, and about 100 other factors, so nobody can answer the question.

But like GanjaHome said, for your first go you might aim for .5 grams per watt (half a gram per watt) so if you were to have 5 plants under 600watt then perhaps 60gram per plant. And veg under MH if you can. Dependant on your skills or lack thereof, the conditions, and whether you encounter any probs/pests and you most likely will like I did and most newbs do, you could end up with a lot less (or nothing) or more than this.
