I posted yesterday, but did not see that my leaves look to be kicking off trichoms. (noticed after looking at pics at 100% on lappy).
At any rate, took some more close up pics and am hoping the community can weigh in.

Do the leaves look okay? Is this what they are supposed to look like at just over two weeks?

The only thing I can detect is very slight dry/yellow tips of the leaves in pic no.3 but I stress it is only very minor from what I can see and hard to say what is the cause. I can confidently say its not light intensity though. On the whole they look good so dont worry.

600w HPS..Only thing is, couple plants stretched quite a bit..I moved them around tonight so I think I should be okay as far as them being to close to the light (approx 8 inches)

Noooo..not 4x4 room...the room is large. The plants are in a 6'W by4.5'D area. The plants are getting quite large now, so pics look deceiving..
The overall size of the room is 18'x7'. It gets stuffy at times, but not "hot". The plants have a 16" oscillating fan on medium approx 4.5 feet away going non-stop.
Lamp is mild too the touch (you can leave your hand on the hood and not feel discomfort.

so your saying you have no walls no reflective matirial up around the plants, no exhaust, just sum plants under a light in a big room???? if this is true you should think about sectioning off a 4x4-5x5 are and putting an exhaust fan and intake hole with reflective walls, you will loose a lot of light and your plants will have trouble breathing in a "stuffy" room
