ok i was wondering i got some small plants that only have one set of one bladed leaves i put them (2) under a 150watt hps, but i dont know how close they should be. i have read that they should be 12-18 inches, and i have also heard that if your hand is uncomfortable you plant will burn. but this hps light isnt very hot my hand is comfortable around 5-6 inches should i put them that close or what? i also have a pretty powerful fan blowing on the plantsthey seem to like it and it keeps the heat down (i guess). is that a bad or good idea?any help would be useful! :grinjoint:
 
i would be on the safe side and put it at about a foot.
