Yeah thats a big mother lol, bushy as hell :D

So you're generating around 255,000 lumens, thats a hella lot lol, thats about 15,000 lumens on each plant(plant only requires 7,000 a piece). Your setup could be a lot more efficient, you can grow all those plants with just two of the 600s. Just tellin you so you know if you didn't already know because your electric bill can be 1/3 cheaper.

How come you didn't do mylar walls or something? You have flat white(if you got the money for three 600s I'm sure you can afford mylar no problem lol), I've had someone tell me that flat white is 90% reflective but I find it hard to believe lol.

I'm hella baked right now so I hope everything made sense lol

edit:
And if you have good ventilation and air flow I'd put your lights closer else your plants will grow up closer to the light rather than out n fulla buds

yea i had planned on doin mylar walls but the plants kinna got thrown in as soon as my lights went up, but i will probably end up putting it in before flower, also i wanted to leave room for me to walk around so i did like and upside down L for light pattern, kinna had to work with wat i had , pluss the beams were given me problems when was inforcing 2x4 to cealing

Yeah, adding the mylar will help. With 3 600hps lights you can grow up to 35 plants no problem lol. All I have is one and I grow 12 in a 4x4 mylared room and I have my mother in a 30in x 25in closet with fluros(where I do the seedlings and clone rooting)

Expect your plants to grow two to three times bigger in just the flowering stage. The closer you keep your lights to the plants the shorter they will be, because the light is there and they don't have to search for it. I can already see that your plants have been growing with the lighs above them a ways because of the spacing on the stems
