Moved lights closer.

I moved the lights closer to the plants.After a full day night cycle there is a slight change in colour of the leaves, not sure if its just the growing process or I'm burning the plants. Best quality Pic I could get sorry guys.
 
If you moved it closer and it looks like they're getting burned, it can't hurt to move it up and see if the symptoms stop spreading. I know it can be really frustrating with LEDs to get the distance right!
 
Each manufacturer of LEDS has a set of guidelines for distance based on the plants stage- but generally a plant in veg should be 18-24".
With that said- I start at about 30" (seedling) and gradually move the LED until the plants respond (which is around 25") and then I let the plant grow into the light !!
LED's are really easy to over expose the plants and develop all sorts of problems, and each strain is different.
When in trouble or in doubt raise the LED's and start again. You will see an rapid response from your plants once you hit the sweet spot.
 
I see tip burn but I can't be certain. Need a not-so-purple picture.

If the tips are yellowing, then it's possibly over fertilization. Either stop nutes (shouldn't be using them this early) or your media is too hot.

What soil are you using?
 
No nutes yet at all. Dynamic lifter with a Peat Moss and Perlite mix. Yeah I for sure think I have a little yellowing. Besides changing lights how can I lower the temp?
