Hello ...
I just moved over to the 1800 watt led system. They are stressed from that, and I also just topped them.
The ones in the solo cups have been under led lights fromn the start so they are used to them.

I replied to you in the chatroom but you seemed to be away. My 2 cents.... Take the 6 larger plants, place them 2 x 3, 2 wide 3 long. Looks like that would be an area of 20" x 30", figure 30-80 watts per square foot. At 4.17SqFt that gives you 125-334watts. Depending on what you have for LED lights can place them anywhere from almost touching to 16" away from the tops. What lights are they (link)? I would also take the small ones in cups and separate them with their own light. If your worried about plant stress from going to a low light setup then start out with 125 watts working your way up to 334w approx. You mentioned in chat about stress from pruning/topping. I would top within say 12hrs of watering, top right before/after the lights go off, raise the lights higher for a couple days or use lower wattage (ex 125w) can help reduce stress. Nice job, just keep dreaming of big buds :D

I'm not worried about light stress. Its just a first photo from when I switched to the led system. The ones in the solo cups have been under led their whole life. I don't really think I am going to move them into a small square and move the lights. This is a system test for LEDs. I want to see how they work for me. I am going to lower the lamps but as you can see they are stressed enough from the new light. They can wait a day or two before I drop them more. I know I should not have moved the link ghting and topped them the sane day. I'm sick and really did not give it much thought ... opps.

I don't keep other lights in there. I guess I can bring a flashlight in for you.
