I have 2 lights I just made that are 5xCXB3070 BB on a Meanwell - 185-1050 driver, and my very first light with 2xCXA3070Z2 and 2xCXB3070AB on individual meanwell 1400 drivers. I just got some bleaching across the center of my plants so I raised the lights. One hermied from the stress so I got rid of it. 2/4 of my other plant have minor yellow bleaching in a line right under where the light was. I do not have any more cash for any meters or tools, but what is a good ballpark distance from canopy?

it was light bleaching and it was when I was gone with a friend watching them so so not sure when exactly was too much. They were growing real fast the main colas got about a foot away, stuff below that burned also. Now the plants are showing red and purple in the leaves as some fans continue to yellow.
 
Re-reading my last reply I can see how it could be taken in a different manner than intended, so I was asking if you knew how far you were when the bleaching happened, and then I was recommending at least 18" away from canopy........I wasn't trying to guess ytou were 18" away when they bleached......

That make sense lol.... bongsmilie
