For CFL's, should be fine. You can go as close as you can with CFL's (or so I've read). The LED's on the other hand, should stay 12"+ away.

Hi breezy....
So you been a got a big cfl have ya..... 300w of extra light.... Bonus
They are big buggers, thats the next size up from mine too
I keep mine as close as possible, you should be able to put it closer than 6"....
Once on, puy ya hand between ya girl n the light... If ifs not getting too hot, ya girl will be fine.. As you have LED too, just keep an eye on her for any signs of stress due to the increase of intensity... Bit of trial and error, but you will find ya sweet spot mate...
What spectrum is it 6500k,2700k or like mine, dual spectrum ??.... Gonna be the biggest bulb you ever see mate.. When mine first turned up i was like " woah"
Good luck with ya new toy... Twist em into the socket by the base, not the glass itself.. For safety reasons...
Looking good buddy...good call with the extra cfl.
Hey SolMJ - thanks for stopping by. I just checked out your completed grow with it ending up on the roof - man you are ballsy!!
I have a question from looking at your grow - I noticed it appears you planted your solo cups in the soil directly. I am thinking about doing that with my little sensi skunk Im starting (its in my pictures) - funnily enough I have the same 11L fabric pots you used ready.
The bottom is cut off the yogurt container she is sitting in. Is it just a case of planting that yogurt container in the larger pot and the roots will grow downwards and then around the cup? Or is there anything else you need to do?
Breezy - I would suggest a light stand for that 300w and put it right in between the pots. Get the stand at the right height and the cfl will be along side the plants and you can turn them periodically to ensure all areas of the plant get the light.
I picked up 4 of them at Walmart for $5 each - though these are only 60w max.
There are three in the photo below
Hi there fellow grower.... It appears there is a new Sun in your growspace
Those e40 fittings are a fair size aint they ?
Maybe have it hanging in the centre and the ladies grow around the bulb..
The pot turning is a good plan, as suggested...
Im sure you will find a set up your happy with
Enjoy your new big ass bulb, they are well bright
