Switched to LED lighting

Ok got the light In gentz. Got it about 20 inches away from canopy, I also have both veg/bloom lights on now, should I leave it in full spectrum or turn on just bloom spectrum? Okay I change my mind and moved it closer due to no replies yet, 10 inches now, I also have veg and Bloom switches on for full spectrum, should I just have bloom switch on? Any help would be great. Any recommendations please let me know

10 inches is probably fine. Those plants should have been vegged out more with 18 hour daylight before switching to 12/12.

They couldn't have waited any longer because they are autoflowers. I have had them on 18 6 light since seed and continuing 18/6

Understood. I think getting the lamp closer is always a good idea til the "hotspots" show up. A healthy plant will start to bleach under most LED before they burn. Not sure what your lamp is and while I wouldn't expect much from it I would expect it to bush those plants out more. If you had it 20" away and in low power mode it might be an issue. I'm thinking especially with autoflower you would want to run full spectrum and hit them with as much light as possible.

Cool. At about 10 inches away I put my hand under it and don't feel no heat but 20 inches away I don't think the light was penetrating enough. And yes I will leave it on Full Spectrum with both switches on. Ready to see what the hype is about these LEDs hopefully much more swelling occurs
