How far to keep light

so I have a kingbright 320w, I believe the output is really 320w. I have it 27 inches from the seedlings and dimmed down to 15,000 lumens. The little seedling looks like he's stretching, i turned up the dimmer to 25,000 lumens. Will that work?

leave your temp gauge at plant height for 30mins

adjust the light to suit 27F/25c

their you are set

good luck

Ya my light definitely aren't super hot 20 inches away. I have it at 20 inches away and I dimmed it to 15,000 lumens. At 27 inches I saw stretching, so I lowered it, and so far this doesn't seem bad. Could you technically have it at 27 inches and just crank up the lumens to lets say 25,000. Just curious.

its a seed so you best put a 1000w hps on top of it @ 40 inches ..... or 25watts @ 10 inches and save your self a lot of money in electricity. personally i use a 25 watt light for my seeds/clones and step up the lighting once its big enough to handle high intensity leds

Im using a 320 watt kingbright led. Its a 320 watt actual output. Not that bs were it says its a 600 watt, but it's wayyy less like my kingled 600 watt. Im going to use both during flowering.
