You can! I didn't pH test at all. I started in a spacebucket (r/spacebuckets) with 4x 23w CFL bulbs. The plant got big enough that I was running out of room. I didn't have a way to hide the smell for the flower period so I decided to get a 4x2 tent with a carbon filter and this light off of Amazon before switching into flower.
It's a Deep Water Culture grow so it's hydroponic and there is an airstone in the container. I'm using General Hydroponics Flora Series for nutes. The light is from GreenGo I got it off of Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Switch-GREENGO-Spectrum-Indoor-Plants/dp/B07L353RXL
Check out the video in the comments it shows the inside.
Thank you for the thoughts - I have read that 6" would burn them?
I have a red/blue/white full spectrum pair of grow lights (below).
I've dropped them from 40" to 24" for now...

Hi - thank you for the reply. Link to my lights (2 of them) are below (1200 watt full spectrum). Here's the basics:
- I'm in Maine. These are indoors with heater keeping temps at 72-75 degrees.
- I've put an oscillating fan on them.
- The lights were set to "veg" (for seedlings), but I've switched on the "bloom" for full spectrum and reduced height from 40" above the plants to around 24" to avoid burning.
I really appreciate the help!

I tried having them closer to the plants, as well as having both of them on. However, I think they're too intense as the plants started to burn.

Theres the other one I got. Works amazingly, if you have the money I would look at some spider farmer, or maxxisun. Blurples are a bit irritating after a while
what are your thoughts on this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L353RXL/ref=psdc_14252941_t2_B01JLKUA2W i could buy 2 of them and daisy chain them would that be enough?
