The light is to far away. You have a dimmer so you can put the light closer and run it with less power.

Sorry hat the question earlier before but I'm new here so I dont know how to undo the solved quesion status. The LED has about 300W and I want to dimm it. not simply turn it on/off. Preferably with some kind of integration in home automation systems like Home Assistant. Thanks :)

Spider Farmer sf 1000 light height inquiry.I am growing in a 2x2 spider farmer with a SF 1000, currently the light is 20" and only 80% power. It seems like a powerful light and don't want to overdue it.
Should I move the light closer and turning up to 100% power for the rest of flowering?Setup. Lighting
