too much light never, but the heat from light has to be controlled.

mr.sun gives 10,000 lumens per square foot

Click to expand...

At the equator, at noon

there is a such thing as to much light, and saturation as well as bleaching leaves

but what you described is not to much

you should read my NooB Advice thread, if you want to learn about light (oh yeah and everything else)

you could expand your lighting right now to 4-5 times more and still not have too much light. you might have 8000 lumens off your setup, which would be ok for vegging, but you would want at least 20,000-30,000 lumens to flower. im at about 240,000 with my 2 600watters!
