I’m using a 600w hps in my 4x4 tent and I keep it to the top of the tent . Your plant will grow into the light. I have about another week of stretch and they are about a

@ThePotFactory Hang it right at the very top as the HPS bulbs get VERY HOT because any lower and if the plants stretch anywhere near it , they will be fried
