Looking for advice for my first time growing lettuce. The edges of some of the leaves were starting to brown so i moved my light up. I also started with half strength solution but think now maybe i shouldnt have. Any advice i can get to do things better based on the pic?

They look pretty healthy and tasty to me. What’s making you lean towards full dose? There’s nothing wrong with it per se, but if your plants drink up water faster than they eat nutrients, the remaining dosage gets stronger and possibly burns the leaves, meaning you’ve spent twice the money for burned leaves. This is where an EC meter helps, by letting you at least roughly monitor how strong the solution is.
