Here is the par map for 24'' and PAR for middle point at 12'', 24'' and 36'', hope it helps.

Thanks for posting this PAR Mapping. It's really helpful. I'm glad to see GROwant provides.
So 36" to start off with?

I think you still can try it at 24'' for vegging.
For 3 week old seedlings? They have been under a 45 watt white 7000k led panel. Just don't want to burn em right away.

With a PAR reading of 418 at 24" I think you'll be OK. If you want to be cautious to start with maybe 28" and drop a couple every couple of days, until you get to 24". That should be a good veg height, until the flip.

I think BTz answered perfectly.
we can put plant out of middle point where is lower PAR than 418 at beginning and move to middle point little by little when the plants accommodate themselves to the light intensity, in this way you can always keep height of the lamp at 24''.

I really appreciate it guys.

Personally, If I was going to use this light I feel a single would be fine for Early to Mid-Period Vegging. My preference would be to add a second one at the same height but separated by about 6-9inches. Bracketing or Overlapping the coverage for late vegging and flowering would increase the PAR reading at 24" and you could drop to 18-20 inches as you go into heavy flowering without loosing your side to side strength and coverage. Two lights drawing ~90watts each at the wall keeps you still at a very decent cost benefit analysis level and might even bump the yield up over double by 10-25%. Two lights would penetrate deeper and because the coverage angles would cross and add to each others reading level as distances moved away from directly under each light. I'm currently using two PS Mini's in that type of setup and very pleased with the results. BTW, IMHO with the price point currently on this light being used in this grow, it's a really great deal for the PAR results and two would still keep you under what I paid for one of my PSMIni's. Great Deal!

Update:
Waiting for 3 Tut clones to get a little more thirsty. Maybe a few more days, they will get their first watering with nutrients and go in for flower. They are busy building roots right now and haven't put on much growth. Stay tuned.

A few days came quicker then I thought. All three Tuts got Green Planet Nutrients + Terpinator and stuffed into the cab. Flower time!
I'll post some individual pics tomorrow. This is their first water with nutrients, can't wait to see how they like it.

The white powder is diatomaceous earth. Had some gnats. They will stretch nicely, just the right amount I think. Love the structure of this strain in my other grow. Should bulk up well.

Here they are today.
These plants come from two different Tut seeds. #2 seems to have more vigor. I'm sure #1 will make up for slower growth with potency.

They are loving the light!
You are so rich, that you dropped some of the white powder on your plants.....I don't think it will "speed" them up any.... 
My poor attempt at humor.
They look great though..... alternating already.....woot!!!
EDIT: MUST BE CLONES.....DUH!!!
