JoeGrower's 1200 Watt Perpetual 4x8 Tent Grow

My 1,000 watt are 18" from the canopy, the 600 are 12". As harvest time comes closer, in the final weeks I inch them as close as I can get them without bleaching or burning. Usually for the 1,000 around 12-16". You have to be more attentive to your plants the closer the light is. A few inches could be the difference between a big, potent and tasty harvest and a scraggly, struggling or bleached harvest. As long as you keep your lights air cooled and have good ventilation and air flow you can move the lights a little closer and closer until the plants tell you to back off. Co2 is good for high temps and more light. With Co2 you can get much closer and add 15% to your harvest weight possibly.
 
I actually moved it down last night after a feeding and I had the ten open with my house ac on kept my room at 68° with RH 48% and I dropped the light to about a foot I'm not running my exshuast and carbon filter at the moment cuz the tent is in our bedroom at the moment and my wife hates the noise plus lights on at 8pm till 8 am but its cool and smell is controlled so for about 2 more weeks till I move then it will all be hooked up in a garage were I'm moving and it won't be a problem anymore
 
So I'm gonna give an update I'm in week six of 12/12 I gave two ph'd waterings the second was a flush with sledgehammer so last night I fed 2 gals ph'd 6.5
6 tsp big bloom
4 tsp tiger bloom
1 tsp microbe brew
1/4 tsp beast.blms. half rec. strength
So they should b back on track ill be out of ff after this grow and imma switch to earth juice organic is so much better in my preference use some teas just makes a tastier product just had some Chemdog grown with EJ and teas and wow its some of the smoothest stuff I've tasted so I made my mind up EJ and teas is what imma do well back to the update there doing good not as big as I want at this time but I dropped the light some planted my sorry looking twice cut month old clones hopefully they make it can I cut the dead off will it help I know u shouldnt cut anything off cuz its using that for food and producing roots but is it oka now that there brown dead and dry any who here's some pics to go with my update

So were a couple days into week 7 found out my light had been running at 50% so that's the reason my buds aren't as fat as they should be my fault though for not checking it but its hard to get to it well it running at 100% now so hopefully it will swell the buds up some more finally just getting a couple orange hairs here and there so looks like I will take her to ten or more weeks love that blue dream smell though it literally smells like the strawberry blueberry parfait from McDonalds its nice super sticky resinous buds can't wait well here's a few pics to go with
