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 Away . Just place a fan under the light to disperse any heat coming off your light and you should be fine

@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

New update got my new grow light dialed in.. And the nutes helped a lot seen more growth in one day than I had in the last 23 days! I am worried that if I place the light at the recommended height (6”) that would be too much so I’m running the lights at 50% power and at 12” away
