A good way to tell is place your hand right over the tallest part of the plant, if it feels hot or uncomfortable then you too close. You can get pretty close to a 400w bulb without burning, mine are about 5/6 inches away...I think for 400w hps you can get as close as 4". Use a fan.

Which part of the plant is turning white? leafs? or the new bud development? lol.
