Hi(gh), I make sure that I have a distance of 45-55cm and do not exceed a power of 70W.

Hello! my guess would be downloading Photone from the appstore, set it up, google for DLI chart for cannabis and boom. You can now exactly get the DLI you plant needs by lowering, raising, dimming. Very easy and you will get a feeling for it quickly

Confuses Me too you can't turn the Sun down but grow outside with no problem.. stick it in the corner of tent and lower in at night and raise it in the morning...haha couldn't resist that but on a serious note DLI meter mobile app and read up on ppfd etc... Happy growing.

the light should come with a guide on recommended hang heights from the manufacture and any dim setting. You can also judge it by how the plant is reacting. Is it dwarfed from to much light, or tight internode spacing, then need to dim it more or raise it up. Is it stretching a bit to much, then need to move it closer and or increase its intensity.
