Wondering what could be the reasoning…

My torches expand huge during the first 4-5 hours of the day then around mid light cycle start to shrink a little, maybe 30-40% in size. Thought was originally lighting, but they are receiving 150-200 par max and was acclimated over the course of 2 months (xr15 g6 pro) overall intensity maxs at 65-70%, light cycle is 11 hours with 1.5 hour ramps on both sides.

Any thoughts? Is this normal for torches and I just never knew this?

Mine does the same, its super open and long for about 6-7 hours then they get smaller. As far as being normal Ive got no clue, these two are my first torches
