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?

Light doesnt cover every pot
So i've got 2 plants under one cfl lamp and i observed that that 1 girl is reclining to the right. As i see my Cfl this girl is standing right below the plastic part of the cfl and obviously gets less sun. How can i fix this? Changing place my pots every day will do the job?

Hans panel 180 use veg mode or not
I've got a hans panel, it's got veg setting and flower. i had it all day on veg mode, seedling was stretching so i placed maybe 30cm from the lamp, but now leaves turned bit yellow. Would it be better to put it on flower mode and place the seedling further away?

Brown spots
What is this? It's affecting newer growth, first or second set of fan leaves off thee top of the colas. Also, this drooping, is this stress from the light? This is the center of my tent, and would appear to only affect tallest colas of this plant.

Mars TSL 2000 doubt
I just installed my new Mars TSL 2000 and noticed that some of the IR LEDs are more faded than the others. Is it normal in LED lights? Also the LEDs distribution is different than the advertised. Ripped off or just a different model?

Started the plants off with 60 watts. Increased to 100 watts today with a 20/5 schedule. Could I increase to the full 150 watts already or should I give them a few days with 100? Thanks in advance for any advice. It’s my first indoor grow with this setup and I’m still learning :)
