I am having problems with the heat of the light and I do not have more space to raise it, how can I solve it? Should I change the light for one with fewer watts?

I would increase airflow in the tent. Open the vents more to allow air exchange, possible buying a intake inline fan and using your exhaust fan with it doubling the air movement. You can always buy a window ac or potable ac to set in the room. Many use these, as I had to. This will alow you to control all conditions and get it dialed in to perfection. I wouldn't replace the light, I would perform high stress training to get plants away from lights, i would open vents and allow more air flow, buying either another inline fan or a AC portable or window AC. Please consider selecting me as the answer to the question so I can be entered for a chance to win grower of month contest 🙏 please and thank you. Goodluck! 😃

You should of hst them or trained them better. The heat will hurt the flowers final profile. Dimming some and increasing air circulation can help. Changing the light would just be a waste of money.

No I wouldn't do that but you can vent your tent better....your plants need those watts my guy so try training them with some HST to get them away from the light for now until can deal with your venting situation. Maybe use an ac(i do...) or ad another in line fan...etc. Hope this helps bud.

plants look like they are in good shape, eh? So, i'd suggest HST. just snap all of the colas a safe distance from light. they will heal within a couple days, if not 24 hours. try to only apply enough force to get it horizontal and least amount of damage to vascular tissue as possible. some droopage is expected but not always. support it so that it doesn't dangle freely, but it'll be trying to grow vertically again soon -- you my need to tie it down in future. this can give you plenty of space. the buds will still develop fine. If the plant is still exhibiting remnants of vege growth, take that into consideration so you don't have to do this process twice. consider the direction you'll spread it out.. try to break it down toward less dense areas of canopy, if possibly. make sure you don't paint yourself into a corner where one cannot easily be broken down without causing congestion - since you hvae to do it to large portion of canopy.
