What size pots? I not so good in math but the smaller the pot the more you will fit. the bigger the pot less but easier watering. The yield between 4 big pots and 8 small pots could be the same. If your just starting less is easier to maintain.
Mustard is right, the fewer the plants the easier it is. I started out with 6 plants and my setup is roughly the same as yours, lets just say things got a bit crammed once they got bigger. if i was going to suggest something i would say maybe just 4 plants in 4-6 gallon pots (assuming your using soil as your medium). maybe even look into a SCRog setup if yields are what your after.
Due to the fact that your using a single 600 watt HPS i would recommend going with fewer plants then 8. I grow for yield to and its really tempting to fill up every inch with a pot/plant but just remember a bigger pot will also mean a bigger plant. like i said before i have roughly the same amount of space you do and the highest yield i have had is with 3 DP think different girls, 4 gallon pots, using a SCRog system. once you get good at growing an even canopy its gravy from there.
think different is an auto-flowering strain recommended for SCRoging, has gave me pretty good results you just have to put the screen alot lower. regular photos work like a charm to though :smokebuds:
