I'd go with a 600w because it will produce 1.8x light for 1.5x electricity, it is the most efficient HID wattage of light.

You could but from my experience I would just stick with the HPS they work alot better. I would also use a 600w light. My own rule is have 100w per plant. Good luck on what ever you choose to do. ;-)

i just wanted to use the fluoros to veg so i dont have to buy a MH set and i heard not to veg with the HPS bulb
Don't listen to them. If you're trying to save money, use the HPS, they veg just fine.

I veg with fluoros, but that's only because the heat footprint is more convenient for my 2 chamber grow setup.
