I have a 3000 watt 3500 Kelvin and a 2x2x4 just curious if it is going to be too much or do I need to raise it they are currently sitting at 15 in above canopy

 

[MtRainDog]

actual wattage of that light is 320w

 

[MtRainDog]

for a 2x2 it might be too much light. I run 100w boards in my 2x2's, though I don't flower in those tents, and I keep the light all the way up at the top. You'll probably want to do the same with that light

I had a 100w from atshark it did fine but I seen a 300wer on Amazon last night and bought it without hesitant because it was getting good reviews and I had the money after bills so I said fuk it then I wake up this morning it was on my porch. Lol God damn no time for buyers remorse. I have it hanging 15 inch above the month old trees

That lights biggest drawback is those fans put off heat so now you need another fan to dissipate the heat from the fans

I have fans n shit but how high it passes the hand test damn Bubba I can pretty much hold my hand on the light for 30 seconds it doesn't get that warm in there to my surprise

That hand trick won’t work on a LED
Start at 20 inches

You can download a light meter on your phone. Not perfect but good rough estimate.

You are likely going to have an issue with those plants when you go to up pot.
I see some have 2, 3+ plants per solo cup.

Yeah that's too close for those seedlings. That Atshark is a switchable 50w/100w light depending on if you're running veg, flower, or veg + flower.

I'm just starting another round here under my 65w board. It's about 24" above the tops of the cups. They'll be moved under the 100w roughly when they develop their first real leaves and a couple nodes.

Nice bro

 

[bellybell]

Do they look fine

 

[MtRainDog]

Do they look fine

mostly yes, but I do see a fair bit of curling on leaf edges, which can be a sign of heat stress
