Your area should grow 4 plants at best. The height isn't enough. Mine were in a 62" high grow box and I had to raise the top another 22" because at 5 weeks the 400w HPS was burning my taller plants. Now is thre time before you start. I think that the 400w HPS is too much for your grow box. Good luck.
meh it may be a little over kill for my space but, my plants are fine. i got the temps where i wanted, lst'ed to keep height down. and by the looks of it i should be very happy in the next few days.
for your grow, were they indica or sativa, i bet sativa. second what light hood are you useing and are you venting your light hood to cool it off? i can touch the glass on mine since i added the blower. third i could put a lot more plants then just 4 in my space, but i am useing 2 gal pots so i figured id get around a 3 foot plant and uh yeah i was right. i could always grow some auto flowers that are finished by 17 inches tall. so there are manny variables you can go by. hell with my new bubble set up i could add a second unit in my cab and have 8 autos with plenty of room.
but as ive stated befor this cab was a simple first grow attempt, and ive learned so very much since i started. my next grow just might be in some home made grow tents i build. and they wont just be pvc covered in panda...
