about a foot away be careful cause if they end up growing a couple inches over night thy are gonna get scorched.better safe than sorry

8 is good, but just keep an eye on things, because some strains are finicky with the lumens and can go white on the top koalas do to chlorophyll bleaching.

4 inches is the how far away my 1000 watt hps is now

I keep mine a solid 3 feet from the canopy. I'm not using a cool tube or anything, and need it to light a 5x6 or so area.

4 Inches!!!! How is that possible?? What air cooling hood are you using? Pictures please so I can believe you...And dont go dropping it down to 4 inches just for the photo!!! hehehe

[santacruz_organic]

thats insane! i have two air cooled 1000w'ers and i keep mine at 18" from canopy 12" closest. you must be runing air conditioning through your lights or something..lol

[babystarbud]

a thousand watts sounds @ 8 inches is pretty hardcore, you must have some serious cooling system to compensate for that...i'd like to see a pic of that also

i know that set-up would fry my plants, and im only using a 400watt open air jobbie

I can hold my hand on top of the plants comfortablely sorry no pics
