I have a grow with 63cm tall and 70cm wide, I use 8l pots where the quantum board is 15cm high from the plant. do you think this could be related to the size of my plants?

yes, a light that's too close means the plant will make shorter space between the flower nodes so the branches will be shorter. Hope this helps ! 🚀

no! that's due to the poor quality of the plant's genetics. modern autoflowering varieties are bigger than the old ones; the crosses are improving. also, if you use 6500k white LEDs, the plants are more dwarf-like due to the inhibition of cellular expansion. can't you raise the lights more? about 20cm?

Close lights may reduce stretching, but max light = max growth. Unfortunately, the size of your plants is due to the disappointing reality of auto flowering plants. Autos need insanely strong lights and "super hydro" growing techniques to get the best out of them. In fact EVERYTHING needs to be optimal for best results - temps, pH, nutrition, light intensity, humidity levels, air exchange etc etc. In reality, a 240 (claimed) wattage LED is never going to set the world on fire. "Proper" LED grow lights start at around 00 and up. Hope this helps,...... Organoman.

Yes the light being close keeps the plants shorter.
