Your plants don't look to bad. Cheap led lights should be roughly 20 inches from canopy. You can move closer or further to find sweet spot. If you want a decent cheap led I use a 1200w growstar (250w actual wattage) you can yeild 1/2 pound per harvest. Like gmslave said, CMH would be better option. And a 600W HID only costs about /month to run.

it is much better to have aleggy seedling, than burn them down with to much light. just dig some soil around the stem so she cant fall down.....and i have to look into the diary, to get more informations about light and lightdistancce ive been growiing my seedlings with a27 watt LED and they loved it... then after 2 weeks i put them into tthe Bigger light...... in the beginning they just like less... less light, no nutes and less water...... thaat changes if they get bigger

Cmh is very good lighting. Great spectrum and all the light you need for growing start to finish. Cheaper than any led that is worth buying. Also enough for big buds which is something you dont get unless you have real expensive led's. Cheers

Do I need to add more soil to my pot aswell is this preventing my plants from receiving the right amount of light I currently using a 600watt led panel light bit this has no settings no veg or bloom setting I dont think it is very good it came with my tent so I feel it is just a very basic light what is no good for my girls any recommendations on affordable grow lights highly appreciated and any advice would be great thanks
