Adding More Soil
Should I switch from fabric pots and add more soil or just add more soil? My plants are a tall in the sense of they seem really stretched up. I moved my light closer, but I think the lack of dirt could also be hurting them. Any ideas or recommendations? And I'm using a soil/coco

24 inches away from autoflower seed with 1000w lamp? Is this ok?
I have a 1000w watt led lamp and I'm currently doing a 24h schedule at 24 inches away. The temperature has ranged from 63-82 and the humidity 25-48%. Is this distance away from the seed good enough?
