My 1st Attempt At AutoFlowers!

You can lower it...they are young and don't need too much light but they will stretch a lot (especially under hps) with the light that far away...when they get older you can keep it 18-24 inches away, providing you have proper ventilation...try to maintain around 78 degrees F at the canopy height....if the leaf ridges curl up, raise the light

The hand test works good too...hold your hand at the height of the plants, under the light, if it is too hot for your hand it's too hot for the plants...but for right now keep it higher cause they are young
 
certainly wasnt me! at this point u want the light at a point above the plants that when u put ur hand at the top of plant it doesnt burn ur hand. i would have it at least half the height. if u can hold ur hand comfortably on top of plant for a minute then light is right height. thats at the lights lowest point, so start low then raise. Ur plants will stretch like fuck if u leave light there.

As high as you can and never lower it.

I think spimp was joking here, because we were expecting a problem with your plants,

not information that you can find on countless infosheets or with a simple google search.

You called over several stoners and placed them in a room with nothing to do.

And you took the first jokey reply as your advice.

I think its a bit unfair to call that reply "false info"

Especially since you have already grown with a 600 watt HPS.

Was the question really even necessary?
