If you have LED light, you definately should increase the light level to 400 ppfd! 150 is much to low.

150μmol/m².s is very low to me. You can start increasing gradually to reach 400μmol/m².s

Looking at your pics I'd say the light height is decent where your at.

What are you checking with? How does the plant look? What's the light manufacturers recommendation?

Lighting question I am running the Viparspectra 450w LED as my light for 4 autos in a 2x4 space. I am worried this isn’t enough, especially because of its lower levels of red. Should I upgrade to something stronger like a Mars hydro 600 or 1000 before flowering start?Or if not Mars something else?

Autoflower light schedule Soon rolling into veg for my first auto grow. Currently on an 18/6 light schedule using Mars Hyrdo II 700w . Don’t have any problems with temp/humidity inside tent. Once you notice the buds starting to flower do you switch to 12/12 or just keep plugging away with 18/6?
