Hello
I've recently acuired a gavita 1000w DE and decided to use a larger part of the room I use for flowering. The problem I need some help with is to get the optimal design down, which may sound more easy then it is due to a weird room layout.
Room specifications
1.2m (3 feet 11¼ inches) x up to 2m (6 feet 647⁄64 inches)
Before I got the Gavita I used a sealed off part which was 1.2m x 0.8m and it was lit by a lumatek 600w hps @ 660w
I grow in Nutriculture Gro Tank 205's which I would like to flower 4 of them at once if possible.
They measure 695 x 385 x 185 mm (But in reality they are about 410mm wide and 700mm long)
The solution I use now is to stack the systems along one of the long walls and that makes 0.7m x 1.6m grow area and I plan to put some plants with coco in the space left between the systems and the wall.

The other option I got is to put system to system against the short wall. This is superior due to the fact that I would use pretty much 1m x 1.4m for growarea which suits the footprint alot better. There is no gain without pain though so I run into this problem, its extremely hard to reach the systems that are closest to the far wall. Its so hard that 2-3 weeks into flowering there is no route open anymore at all.

This is certainly not a huge problem really but if anyone have a couple of minutes over perhaps you got the experience I need to solve this optimally.
Edit.?
Maybe I should stick with the solution I used for the 600w but use three systems instead, would be an area of 1.2m x 0.8m, maybe dim down to 825w to not oversaturate?

I'd prefer not to change my grotanks but I am open to any suggestions people make.
Thank in advance
