Too much stretch. What can be done. 2 weeks into flip

I have the LED set at around 40% I have found too much of the LED gives me awful-looking leafs.

Ok here are pics taken in total darkness with flash.

The strains are on the left 4 Granddaddy Purple and on the right 4 Bruce Banner

I am concerned you are going to be way below needed PPFD to flower your plants. Not knowing the brand or model the typical 1000W blurple draws around 140 - 150 watts at the wall. This might also explain some of the stretching. This is about what you want to flower a 2x2. If you have it turned down to 40% and covering twice the space you will end up with fluffy cotton candy rather than firm compact dense buds.
Hope it works out for you

Thank you for the response. Checking now.

HLG 260xl rspec is on sale at their website now. I bought a second one for my 4x4 tent over the weekend using discount code “dude” and it cost $282. Will be delivered to my door on Wednesday and one of those would be good for a 2x4 tent.

Hey thanks for the model, checking it out .now.
