Upgrading grow room!

So im thinking after my first harvest which is going extremely well btw you can check it out in my grow journal.. I think i plan to upgrade to a 4x8x7foot tent with 2 1000watt hps/mh with XXXl hoods... i plan to keep one of my 4x4 tents to veg in and sell the the other tent +the other 600 watt light + ballast.. I plan to do 12 plants every two months hoping to hit the 2+pounds a harvest mark or a 1 pound a month. I plan to top everything to maximize my Bud sites ... anyway thoughts on this when i upgrade would i wanna go with an 8inch hood for the 8 inch fan for air movement and keep my veg tent with a 6inch? just trying to plan out my next grow =D already got my 12 girls vegging!
 
I have a 4x8x7 tent I split in two I've used for about 4 years the sippers are failing now so I'm going to build a room. before you spend the money on 2 hps my friend uses a light mover for his room and it works fantastic he grows 5 plants at a time and his harvest are between 1.5 and 2.5 lbs per grow. high yealding strain thc bomb
 
Yeah i think i will go ethier with 2 1000watt or the light rail but im hoping to do 12 so thats alot more than 5... but that is a good idea but if thats the case i would rather use the two 600watts more light = more bud light is food! but thanks for the info im still trying to figure out cost/investment i gotta recoup what i have put in so far.
 
Everything I've read/researched states that you get more grams per watt with 600w over the 1000w. Personally, I'd try to configure a setup using 3 600w. Maybe 1 6" exhaust through hoods and another for room exhaust.
 
I have 1 6" already I have a friend who does Hvac who will help me install an efficient Venting system for it may not need to run an ac with summer coming but will probably need a big dedmudifier. Since less humid air holds less heat. But yeah a 3 600watt ina 4x8 may be too much though possibly a 4x10 but i only have 12 plants thank you for the input.
 
I have thought about that not sure about sealing it though and holding a temperature would be the problem it would have to be a sealed system with 3 lights not sure how to control the heat at that rate I would have to invest into a portable ac and running 1800watts + 1000watt ac would probly trip my 20 amp breaker if it was my house i would rewire the whole room for 40-60 amp breaker and really put some power on that circut
