    in flower you can get it closer - also no need for such large spacing between ur girls
    that light only consumes 240w and you can get that 12''~18'' away from the tops

    Agreed and probably more 12 than 18, IMO. Just push the maids closer together as your light's focus will narrow as you drop it lower.

    Best you rotate the light by 90 degrees too if the plants are in a line like that

    I don't think so. If they are Auto's, it should just make them grow bigger. JMO
