answered grow question 5y ago
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 and water
Thank you guys! for watering, I don't know how she can react giving her more than 250ml. I can try but I don't want to drown her. For the light, unfortunately direct sun light arrives from 11.30/12 am to 7pm. Before it is covered by other buildings behind my terrace.

Slow indoor seedling growth
4 days since sprout, issues with light timer, seedlings ended up getting 48 hrs of light after they sprouted, and this AM I found that the timer did not turn the light back on so it got 11 hours of dark last night instead of 6. Could this be detrimental to seedling?

Is anyone else using Spider Farmer Lights ? How was the stretch on your plants using these lights ? My plants stretched from 10 inches to 30 inches in two weeks & another week of stretching left.😒 Not a big deal but I have a 60 inch tent , not a lot of room to LST.
