It's ok Kevin, because when I first got my light systems I learned the hard way too about having plant leaves too close to the bulb.

When you wait for leaves to dry off thoroughly before placing plants back under the light system, this helps too. Just a few tips that you weren't aware of, so no big deal.

Sometimes too, plants that have come from a low-light atmosphere, or that have experienced a lot of dark days, will need to be weaned onto the stronger light gradually over time, and not just all at once. This could be another reason for your plant's spots.

Just move the plant a bit further away from the bulb and gradually move it closer to the bulb every 2-3 days. It sounds like you've already done this.

Guess you'll know soon what the problem and what the solution is, by the way the plant responds...

Thanks about my pups...I sure am proud of them!
