Got any pictures? Would love to see them. Might help.

it depends, if your using incandescent then like 6 inch to prevent burning, if using florescent then like 3 or 4 inches. Hope it helps.

If you're using incandescent...?

If that's what you're using, then you're doing it wrong, simply put.

i use incndescents... 2800 watts of em REPRESENT!

CFL/t8/t5/12 = 2-3 inches away
HPS/MH = 12-24 inches away. better to start off further and get closer slowly than to get it to close and burn it.
LED = touching the plant lol, maybe not touching, but almost that close

LOL i got you dude how the fuck are they 2.5' and only first leaves hahaha what are you using a flash light lol

I think he meant 2 inches not 2 feet. If your plants are two feet at this point, you may as well just start over. What kind of lights are you using?

if that thing is 2 feet then start staking it up and prepare for a long ride with your 15 foot tall plant lol.
