If you hang your light that high you will get tall lanky stretched out plants. That means node spacing gets too far apart & you get small buds. Keep your light as close as possible for short bushy plants that produce large buds.

Don’t put that bright ass light to close or you will never get them to harvest. Let’s not kill em. Yes bro hang your light high for your seedlings, I think 30 inches will be cool. When they grow a little you can move it closer, or they might grow to right where you want them to be. More likely, where you will want them to be.

I recommend getting a little qb or some cfl for your baby’s.

I feel your pain. I've grown Critical twice now. Had a plant just give 2 oz. & the most was 4 oz. I wont do Critical again.
I'm use to 8 - 10 oz. per plant so that kind of felt like a waste of time.

I think I got about 2 zips when it’s all the way dry. Critical XXL was not as big as the first auto I grew which was northern light blue. Here is a pic of some trimmed nugs. Smells good, like sweet, black pepper skunk. This plant didn’t get as much light as it wanted and took fffooorever to mature.

Remember, this is a Bestva 2000 we're talking about. Probably 300 watts at the wall. I usually start at 24" but 30" should work. He just has to watch for skinny, long, lanky stems & lower the light if that starts happening. I usually do the 24", 18", 12" seedling, veg, flower which works well for me with white LED's.

also the plant thinks the summer is done and adding a big light now at close range can set off foxtailing,
