advice on 6kw build

[indocult]

Heya guys and gals, got a question on my 6kw for the experienced folks.

My space to work with is 11.5' x 22.5'
Planning on two rows of three lamps and keeping the lamps close together for the light overlap.

This will leave a big 10'x11' spot on one side with no light. Plans are to expand w more lamps later.

My question is this..
Im already over budget.. but should i build a temporary wall that separates the space and maximize the light being reflected? Or will it not make enough differenc?

If i build it im just gonna tear it down next run, and the materials will be more than i should spend. Looking for any input, thanks folks.

Oh this is for a flower room already have veg

Haha thanks man, you got me out of my derp moment. I'm in the mindset that I have to build every wall up to code and blah blah blah, but you helped me realize I don't need all that for a wall that's coming down in 2 months.

Put up a curtain, some heavy drapes can be bought used on Craigs list etc etc

6,000 watts / 50 watts per sq. ft. 8' x 16' growing area for 6kw. If you put this in your 11' x 22', paint the existing walls flat white and crowd toward them, you probably could skip the temporary walls with little consequence. Good luck!

Center each 1kw light over a 4x4 area. Good luck. -granger

You can go as far 5x5 with a 1k with a good hood or vert, but you'll get better light penetration in 4x4.

Thanks for all the input guys! I Don't think I'm gonna build a wall now, Maybe the curtain thing if anything
Mostly I wanna get each lamp centered like granger is sayin.

Now trying to decide to SCROG or just stake everything and tie up big colas...

I saw a great idea for a sturdy scrog frame here once, I can't for life of me remember what it was or who posted it... Someone posted their 4x4 posts in 5 gal bucket full of cement as their frame, and someone else chimed in with a better idea.
IF that rings any bells pleeease post a link or maybe throw out some ideas.
Thinking of wood frame at the moment, Used pvc before and it wants to bend inward and I don't really think it's good for SCROG frame..
