Snapchat-147251003.jpg You probably can't see it but theirs about 3/4 inch seedling started and I was wondering what height to hang my light above it(I'm using the mars hydro ts 600). And yes I know the other two little plants pathetic.

24” at 25% if it’s dimmable. 30” if it’s not. turn it up to 50% after a few leaves grow in. The drop it to 24”. Let a few more sets of leaves grow in and bump to 75% and 18”. Stay there til you flip to 12/12 then 100% kept at 18”. Gotta stay on top of the growth and keep adjusting light accordingly.

I would keep at 16" for the first 3 weeks then lower it to 14"... its only a 92 watt light at the diodes, so you have to keep that thing close! And I would rotate it 45 degrees to properly cover those two black pots...

I don't know much, but it looks like your plants are stretching to reach the light. Lower your light some. I'm using the same light and my sprout literally just emerged and I'm trying to figure it out exactly how far away the light needs to be.
