She looks like she's loving life to me. I wouldn't mess with it. However, It's possible you could be hovering a bit and blocking some light getting though :crying:

I'm jus messing, we were all new plant parents once. Ohh, I don't mean to alarm you but..................

There is a piece of perlite on the tip of your leaf holding it in the dirt :biggrin:

Yes it can make it very squat in size with the light a bit to close I've also found some strains that really hate having the light to close yrs looks fine it's not tacoing or anything so it's not necessarily needed but if you want some more stretch it can help wats the height of it from top of that lil lady

I super enjoy doing it. The whole process and learning. Seeing how they grow etc. There is so much shit bud in my area I love growing decent stuff.

24 inches but at 1000 watt. Specs say between 24 inch and 30 for memory

I have a SF1000 in my tent as well. They are 100 watts. Tricky marketing with the names is all.
 
Dont they class them as the same output as a 1000watt hps
They might class them that way, but it doesn't make it true. When I grew with 1000w HPS in the 90's I would grow 5 plants under it and average about 1-1.5 lbs per light. The spider farmer fits 1, 3g plant and I get on average 4-5 ounces at 100w. It's just not really fair to compare HPS to LED it's just marketing BS.

Yeah. I figure that. Would like to go hps 1 day but led probably suits me better at this stage
 
The only reason I would consider going back to hps is because it's damn cold in my basement in winter and I could use the extra heat. If it comes down to a 1000w heater or HPS I think I'm going to go the HPS route.
