I would say 40 50cm then let the plant grow until the bulb is 20 cm from plant tent start moving the lamp as the the plant grow to keep 15 20cm distance between plant top and bulb.

Light analysis??
I used the photone app in order to get these numbers that are pictured below ! I’m going to research them but I’d thought I’d share them anyway.

Anyone used the Phlizon Cree COB 2000w lights? I’m running two in a 8’x4’ under a scrog net. 5 weeks into veg but nowhere near where they should be. Used only the COBs in veg as some suggested but had to put on full blast today and hope for some speedy growth before I flower them

Starter kits!
What can I expect from a 600w starter led, I know they're not meant to be great, but of 2 plants in 1.2 x 1.2 x 2m tent, fan kit, filter, etc. I know it won't great an there loads of other factors but say its a good grow, goes well what can you expect with these of good plant.

300w COB CREE Distance?
I've put my 6 seedlings under a 300W COB CREE UFO light, atm is a 30cm distance from them, I do hope is not too close. I've only a 140cm height and more would be problematic to manage in the long period.
