:o3 x1000W in 2x2? 6000 umol on just 4 square meters as a starter? Isn't that a bit overkill? Who on earth recommended you to hang 3 x 1000W lamps on that space? 2 is more than enough. I can imagine that this doesn't work.

Use two lamps, on that space keep at least 60 distance to your crop and you will have 950 umol. At 115% keep at least 70 cm distance for average over 1025 umol. At that power you will have the same or a bit better light than one pro 600 in 1 tent. A really good uniformity you will not get on that space, using 2x1000W on 2x2m, specifically in the corners. 4x600W would have been a much better choice for this surface.
