If you back your light off they should start to stretch a little bit trying to get closer

 

[Alen206]

Oh OK I see I have 16 plants and two led light 1000 watts each

 

[Imhigh85]

Yeah you'll be good if you back off some distance if the light is too intense they stay short and bushy so they don't have to get up into the heat of the light so if you back it off they should start to move

Why do want taller plants? Most people want shorter plants when growing indoors lol

 

[Alen206]

OK I did they are at list 3 or 4 feet away all of them have a lot of branches and all but not going any taller

They look over or under watered for one thing and the pink light wont grow giant colas alone, you'll need to add some white light to get giant buds.

 

[Alen206]

Oh no I tight top leaves up so side branches can get light I let them down so they look like they are up they just need to come back

I grew with pink cob led lights for a few years and had the same problem, super tight node spacing and small buds but super resinous and two week faster on harvest times(my light had ir and uv)

Theres nothing wrong with short and busy... What strain is it? Some strains are very short... Raising your light up is only hurting them, more light the better, which means the closer the better. Stop worrying about how tall they are and worry about things that actually matter like, ph, ppm, nutes, environment. ect

Sounds like a pH problem, what media are you growing in?
