Njanneanswered grow question 5 years ago This looks like heat stress to me. In your question you were trying to decide if the light is too close, or if it's head stress... but basically too close to the light = heat stress/burnt plants. I had this problem in my first grow. I had a HUGE 1600W LED light in a 5x5 grow tent and my plants were starting to cook due to heat. My plants can't tolerate much of 30* temp without stress. I have an inline fan pushing cold air into my tent, and the exhaust blows out the hot air. I would recommend you get your temperatures down to 27-28C if possible. A nice cool evening temp of 23-24C during flower stage will help too. Best of luck. Oh, and if it's any consolation, in my first grow where the plants suffered a lot of heat stress... as in, it took me a long time to figure out the problem LOL, my yield still turned out great and the bud was super fun to smoke :)
