1st Grow - 25 Plants - HELP PLEASE! Plant Cluster Placement??

I have a 12x12 sealed bedroom, lined in Mylar, dedicated to this grow. I know this probably seems obvious but I’m brand new and haven’t found this reading in beginner’s section…

In a room this size is it better the spread the plant groupings as far apart as possible to give the plants maximum room or is it better to cluster all the groupings together to take advantage of any reflected light from the adjacent clusters? In other words should I compact all the plants into one end of the room butting them up, one cluster to another? Or use the entire room to spread them out. The entire room is 144 SF but I only need 80SF (according to the rule 1000Watt = 4X4SF) Should pack them all together? Or take advantage of all the space in the room to give them as much room as possible between each cluster?

If having the clusters together is preferable, I do have a smaller 10X10 room available - would I be better off switching to the smaller bedroom, rather than the 12x12?

Necessary Info: 25 plants (Indica - OG Kush), soil grow, well ventilated, (5) 1000Watt HPS Lamps, CO2 generator.

Thanks in advance for your help!
