    Simple Question

    Hello,

    Yeah, the seedlings do look a bit stretched. They seem to be doing fine though. I would watch them and if they start to bend over then tie them to a stick that you will stick in the soil. I would get a fan on them in order to help build the stems strength. Not a heavy wind, just a very light and gentle breeze.

    It sounds like you have enough light now. Is it all fluoro's still, if so keep them as close to the plants as possible. You want to keep the plants at a temp of around 78*. The fan will also help with some heat.

    Hope this helps.

    Peace

    Your light is to far away, this will cause them to stretch.

    Simple Question

    hi deriak, hello mate they do look a little stretched, but not as bad as i have seen, when there ready to transplant stick them in the dirt a lil deaper than normal, this will help encourage some root growth from the stem, if your only using florrys then get them as close as poss to ya babys say about 6 inches, be luckey
