probally around 12-16 inches or so do the hand test hold the back of your hand and canopy level if it is to hot for your hand its to hot for your plants

^^this is the golden rule. the hand test is your best bet. depending on how well you cool your light you may be able to get them a lot closer, but your hand will tell you exactly where the burn point is.
