Lights

Quick Question to anyone who will reply. Im on day 15 since I started. I have 3 90w led lights lined up in a row and just wondering how far they should be from the plants during the veg stage.I also have a few cfls along the sides. Ive heard they should be father away during veg stage to promote tall growth. true or untrue? Any help will do. I have 8 fem auto bubblicious 1 fem auto royal bluematic and 1 fem auto kritical bilbo. all popped and are like i said 2 weeks from when seeds hit the paper towel. i figured some would die or be males so i have a few extra incase. im growing hydro with a 10 bucket kit. any other info just ask. Thanks guys and girls!

do the hand test put the lights as close as possible without them touching the plants and put the back of your hand in front of the bulb if its too hot for you its to hot for your plants. and putting the lights far away will cause stretching and you dont want that because your plants will double or triple in size when flowered
 
Alright thank you. On my leds, I can pretty much touch the lens without being burnt. I'm gonna go with 6-12in away. I'm thinkin of posting pics tomorrow. I think that would give people a better idea of what I'm working with.
