Flipping her to flower-how high should my light be?

Hey y’all! New grower here! I’m on my first successful grow and am flipping my blueberry muffin to flower this week. I have a hlg 600 rspec and is hung about 27 inches from plant at 70 % intensity. I had it at 24 inches, but seemed a bit close as she was growing. What is a good height for flower w/ this light? A friend who has the same light says keep it 20 inches from canopy throughout flower at 100%, but he’s soil and I’m hydro. Not sure yet if that matters since I’m still learning. Any thoughts!? Thanks! :v:

45-60 dli for optimal intake

I’m not real familiar with hlg but my bigger lights seem to be best around 20-25 inches from the canopy at 100%… I believe @CooterJuice @Storm both run big hlg lights or they might know who does

Rspecs I’d try to stay 20+" or so… Diablo boards closer to 15". But as always… Watch your girls

Bubba Kush, tallest kola in the grow. Lights are dual 260 Rspec, so a roll your own 550R right now 20" above that bud at 900 ppfd in a 3x3 tent. Could get the chop in the morning. Just waiting on a few amber trikes.
