Should be good with that. If it's air cooled you will surely be fine. With 1000w in a XXXL hood I have it 24" away with no problem. I let em' grow a couple of inches...at 20" I start to see heat stress so It move it to 24" and so on. I exhaust through mine but if I ran cool air intake on it there is no telling how close it could be. IMO any closer for a 1000w the light is wasted and footprint shrinks though. Been 24" for 10 years now and I like it...wit sum 3 footers under dare.....yuppers.
I don't know how some of you guys are getting so close and liking it. I did it again after reading this and the same thing happens to me on some strains. I can keep my hand there all night. On the the glass even. Temp at the leaf is 84 and this is what I get.
same bud down lower. it's much fuller.
I believe it to be a sativa thing. It looks to me as if you are growing a sativa or sativa leaning strain, they seem to hate being close to the light no matter how cool it is, not sure why but that has been my experience.You can see better here. This strain shows it the most. Some are much harder to tell. I can only see the difference when trimming. Then I will notice the closest ones aren't quite as nice as the ones finishing 20" away from 1000w
Here is some more. Can see a lil better here. The bud on the left is a picture of the bud in my last post.
The bud on the right is here
They are on the same plant. The one that is running long is 10" away. The one to the right is 18" away.
I keep my t5 like 5-6 inches....... does anyone else in here use a t5?
