Light help please.

[LongsPeakstate]

I have a 2.5x2.5 tent, small. I have 3 autos at 33 days old inside. I have two vipraspectra 600w full spectrum dimmable lights. 24 inches high at 75% power. I had been running them under 50% before yesterday. This morning one of my girls has the top two fan leaves reaching toward the light but the leaves are cupped. Too much light, not enough? I did water yesterday which was also first day of light increase. Could it just be transportation? Any help is appreciated.

Why people run their lights under 100% and far away I don’t get. Turn it up to 100% and slowly work your way to your acceptable range. Read the plant. I agree with above pics will help

My sf4000 is an older generation. No dimmer knobs. Gotta do it right on the drivers. So I don't mess with it. Just lower it when need to

Well, I'll take that. My first grow so... I'm a little paranoid. Early on I know I was over watering. Not to mention I know jack shit about growing and I put them in straight FFOF. My next to girls are in 50% FFOF, 40% coco coir 10% added perlite give or take. They are looking way better than my first three already.

I've only got 3 finished grows under my belt so I'm still new myself. Very very far from an expert haha. My first grow was my best. Then I tried something new. I don't recommend doing that. I'm going back to DWC since I got the hang of it and was impressed with everything about it. I've learned to not smother my plants with love. And to me I don't see any drooping. Just leaves trying to get the most out of your light

My plants would melt if I turned it up to 100%.

I’m sure he’s on a different level of light than you’re using.

New growers who mix mediums seem to have issues. I would stick with either organic soil or coco.

I couldn't remember haha. I was thinking it was bad to mix soil and coco. Because of the different cation exchanges. No clue what that means besides how the plant uptake nutes?

I will make lots of mistakes, of that I have no doubt. I need a universal constance. Heres my highly amateur grow op. Spare room i didn't even remodle when I bought this home earlier this year. At least its getting some use.

I'd start to lower your light. That looks like they are pretty far away. A couple inches at a time so they don't stress. When I get home ill show a picture of mine. I just lowered mine to about 12-16 inches before I had to evacuate due to either my dumb stoner ass getting too high or because I have high levels of CO from my furnace. Tried to shower yesterday and almost passed out.
