There is no problem as long as your temps are not too high and theres good airflow, its safer to have your hps bulb further away for the first while so you can lower it as you feel the need to rather than have it too close and burn them

i agree...it's not about time at that stage...it's about intensity. i run all veg at 24/0 and when i move my girls at 2-3 weeks to the 1000w mh i just keep it about a 12-18" higher than i want it and move it down over the course of the first week. this gives them a chance to harden off to the more intense light.

I think you should be okay putting the plants under the new 600watt on 20 on 4 off schedule. I'd suggest you start with the light up high then slowly start to move it down to where you can without burning the tops of em & just keep a close on on them the first day or so. Other then that remember to water and what not and I think you should be okay.

i have a similar question about "hardening off" someone mentioned this to me before but didnt think it would happen, i put 8 autogrowers in my window sil when its a nice sunny day for a few hours till the sun passes then i throw them back under my 45 watt LED panel where this all started. 2 of these 8 i put i assume are light shocked or whatever cuz they were all just perfectly fine, doing good in the sun in the window sil too and then now 2 of them are shrivlled up where the new leaves are coming in
