I currently have a 2ft by 3ft space that is about 8ft high. I am using a 600 watt mh they are about 3 or 4 weeks in veg. My exhaust works absolutely terrifically (surprisingly cause i just have a homedepot 6inch inline fan pulling through my reflector) In any case, i can get the light closeee, especially when the temps start getting cold outside. How close should a put the light, its at about a foot above the tops right now *assuming heat is not a problem*. (they are in 3gallon pots). Heres a pic. What is ideal? Should it be closer in flower than veg?

I think what works best for each of us in our own gardens is the best way

I see alot of gardens first hand and all different methods, but I only apply what works for me. That makes better sense
