burned plants :(
Went from 200w CFL's to 600w hps, but my mistake, I put the light too close and burned my baby.
Is there anything I can do but take off the crispy leaves and give it some darkness ?

I would put it back to what it is used too if there is any green left and hope for the best.google:hps distance chart.work your plant gently in range next time.

With most 600w your looking 12-18 in away from the plants. Then use your hand to check.
Not much you can do, though if it makes you feel better I don't think I have ever seen a plant die do to lightburn.

No dont worry about the darkness just make sure its about 3' away in future, a Hps 600 is no cfl bro its more like a room heater.

Depending on how bad the burn is you should be ok.
I have had this happen on several occasions. I continued with the same light cycle and raised the reflectors a bit. Water before they go dark and they should recover. I left most of the burnt leaves on for a few days until new growth formed above them and then clipped the worse ones.
