It’s 780 watts
How far away is it from your plants?
I just let my lights down some more so now it’s about 14in from my tallest plant

That is plenty of light. You might consider putting them in other pots and bury them up just below the leaves.

Or try propping them up until they are ready to repot.

Your getting good advice. I dont know your light. Since you lowered it, watch ur plants for heat and light stress. Also, ur soil looks pretty wet.
Transplant then in a good dope soil.
Cover with dirt, like others have said, so only about 2 inches of plant sticks out. Dont pack the soil down.
Cover your plants with a clear solo cup. Spray the inside of the cup with water. Mist it. Dont water the soil at all until its dryer than a popcorn fart. Just mist the cup when the cup is dryish.
Make sure you are ph’ing ur water to 6.5… even the cup mist
No nutes yet. Only ph’ed water.
Be patient.

@Flitme Here you go.
@dbrn32 What is your opinion on this light? Here is the diodes they use.
Osram Top Bin Diodes
@Stoney10 How far was the lights away? On their site it said Veg at 24”. I would be worried about the 14” mark above the plant.

@Stoney10 Most grow lights will have specs that the manufacturer will recommend depending on plant stage. Vivosun has these in their packaging.

The roi lights look great on paper, but gor whatever reason the 720 got a bunch of horrible reviews. My local grow shop had roi-680 on display and it looked like like nice light for the price.
