How come you're not running at full power?
Also don't have anymore room to raise the light in a grow tent max height is 5' 10"..

The more light the better really, but obviously keeping temps low enough and avoiding burn are the key factors in deciding how far you can push the light

Ok kool. Yea I tried stepping up the light output to 75%. It raised temps to 83. Put my hand under about a foot away and felt like I was getting a sunburn.

Have you got fans in there? air movement is important but don't blow the leaves too much or they get stressed and curl
83 should be fine so long as there's air movement and the light's not too close

Yes I have one blowing from underneath and one up top blowing over but not directly on to the leaves.

sounds perfect
Is it ok that it will be only about a foot away? And my hand kinda feels like it's burning underneath tho?

Thanks for the info. Sure sounds like you know what you are doing. You should start a journal, it's never too late. You can always give a quick background of what you have done,, and then give updates as you go along.
That would make it easier for us all to follow, and would give you a record of your grow. It also comes in handy when you can't quite remember how you handled situations the last time they occurred

Good morning friends 
I think Wanda is lonely. She just sits there waiting to complete her mission.
For reasons I can't remember, she is only in a 2 gal smart pot. I'm guessing she won't be filling in a whole lot more. Considering she was the only female out of 6 seedlings, and the whole grow with them was just to fill in time while waiting for clones to arrive (which might explain the 2 gal pot) I am happy with her.
This is how she looks this morning

Is there no way to get the light a bit further away? Keep a close eye, it may well be too close
A lot will depend on the temp of the air that you are drawing into the tent from outside

It's literally like a sea of weed in there right now
I reckon I am just about done with the yo-yos (apart from the daily maintenance)
Ten boxes of eight later, three left over, that's 77 yo-yos in action, the pics hardly do it justice, mind blowing
Mid way thru week six bloom, maybe day 39??
