Hi Hydro91, I am so glad that you choose us, and based on your description: 5x5 area, 4 plants, I would suggest you use 4pcs of Mars II 400 + one Mars II 900 in the middle. This way will give you around 42~45w/sft, which will ensure you a good coverage and growing result; However, if you plan to use 4 Mars II 900, then you will get around 62w/sft, which will be a little too much for your space. :) You can order directly from our website: www.mars-hydro.com and use coupon code: MarsHydro to save some money, and if you have any question on lights, you can contact me or info@mars-hydro.com direclty. ;)
