When Should I start to raise my lights all plants have grown quite short and stocky so far the 400w light seems to be getting to the new growth well, going into week 5 my tallest is about 27cm shortest about 22cm, for the record I'm not in no rush to switch

@mangodudu thanks I've dropped them down to 315w and raise the light a few inches, you suspect that's the cause? If you got a spare minute I'm about to post an issue up regarding nute deficiency, really appreciate the input 🙏🏿

@justa_retard thanks for your response man, I'm feeling it in this one and appreciate the assist, I've now dimmed my ballast to 315w and lifted the lights a few inches, as for the overwatering, I'm struggling I have only just watered them 3 days ago after a 10day dry out due to overwatering, I think I do have a nute deficiency as I'm about to stick up a new question as it looks concerning, but again I'm baffled as I'm currently only using 75% nutes that the feed chart recommends 🙈 runtz muffin are doing well but these gorilla Zkittlez are troubling me 😕

Since it's HID you gotta be careful with the heat. So I'd suggest paying attention to that when considering the height of the lamp. And most important to remember, especially since it's HID.. Your plants will likely stretch to about 2x their size, when you flip to flower, possibly 3x depending on genes. So you should take that into account as well since it would be a shame to burn the tops. Also.. Your plants look a bit droopy.. It could be a lot of thiings, but most common is overwatering.. Keep an eye on that as well. And llooking at the lleaves, there could be some deficiency going on, but I'm not too experienced using fertilizers, so I can't say what it is.
