How tall should seedlings be? I have a few that just sprouted yesterday and I don't want them to stretch. The CFLs are about 4 inches above them; too far away? Also, when is a good time to switch from 24 to 18/6? I don't want to do it too early because I have read that it might cause stretching as they stretch out to find light in the dark. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

EDIT: The CFLs are the big 150W equivalent.
