I used a P600 for my 2nd grow (White Widow Auto.) They are bright! I found in veg that I had to keep the lights at about 27"-34" with the 'veg' LED's only on. After the flip to flower, and turning on both the Veg and Flower LED's, the plants grew quickly and nicely towards the light. I found that 18" was a bit too close, and kept backing off to about 24". I was in a 78" tent and found that 4 rope ratchet light height adjusters worked better than the supplied light hanging stuff, as I was able to move the light several inches closer to the top of the tent, as the plants flowered and tried to grow into the light. I got about 1/2 G/W in a 2x4, and the upper bud quality was stellar. Good luck!

Yes! I've come to realize that you do have to keep these light far away from the plants. Which is really hard to do when my tent is only 60 inch tall. I might have to get a bigger tent if it poses a problem in the near future
 
At the beginning of the grow I had the light about 24inches and it appear to be some light bleaching but I'm not real sure. Any input would be greatly appreciated

Today makes about one month into veg with p600 led and with the misty kush getting the biggest so far. The ak48 isn't far behind.. I don't know if I should veg for another month or go into flower in a few day.what do you all think?? And suggestions would. E appreciates
You can kind of figure out the max height your plant can get in the 60 inch tent. From 60, subtract the height of the pot, the closest you can get the LED's to the top of your tent, and the max distance at flower. Made up example: 60" - 8" (pot height) - 4" (lights tied to cross poles) - 18" (min led to plant distance) would leave room for a 30" plant. The Kush will probably get 2x - 3x its current height as an Indica. The AK48, a sativa based, probably a bit more, assuming you are growing bushes.
There is always topping (in veg) and supercropping (in veg and early flower) to learn about too.
Keep in mind. I am not (yet) a seasoned grower, but these are the metrics that I use for making estimates.
 
So it's been about 35 days from seed. I've been tying down all the braches and the most of the smaller beaches have caught up with most the plant. I'm still unsure how much longer I should veg. I don't want to be over crowded in a 2x3 but I also don't want to under do it. I'm thinking of switching to 12/12 in a day or too.

I know I haven't updated in a while but here we are 1 week into flower ak48 and misty kush. They bushed out really nice i can only fit are 2 plants in the 2x3 tent. Under the p600 led light which had been doing a great job. So I figure if I upload some pictures under regular light maybe people will start commenting and giving suggestions.,..man it's dry in here lol
