Well, I figure it's time I start a log.

I bought Feminised White Widow seeds and put 4 seeds into "Root Riot" organic starter cubes. When the first baby popped up I proudly started this thread.

Out of those 4 seeds I got 5 babies. (Photos in the linked thread) I had to separate them and they seem to be fine but the 5th one is a bit of a runt. We'll see what happens.

This is the cabinet:

I have 4 passive intakes and a 130cfm (I think) extraction with carbon scrubber. So far so good there but things tend to be on the warmer side There is a 10ºc difference between the room temp and cabinet temp. It is often 28-30ºc inside (that's 82-86ºf) but it's just going to have to do for now. Hopefully they like it warm, they're going to have to. It's around 65% humidity in there.

I'm using a 250w HPS for the entire grow. I know it's not the ideal but it's what I'm doing for now. I might get CFLs or Metal Halide for veg sometime in the future. They are on 18/6 right now.

They are in "Canna Terra professional plus" soil and have had no nutes yet. The seeds only went in starter cubes for germination 13 days ago, so they've only had their heads out for about 10ish. When should they ideally have nutes? Should they have a few more leaves? I have Bio Bizz organic 8-2-6 and an additional insanely high Nitrogen feed 25-15-15 but it makes me nervous.

Without further ado, here is a photo from today:

Note that the "shorter" ones were the two that came from one seed and had to be separated. I was able to bury them deeper in the pots than the others, who stretched up a bit craving the light. None of them have gotten rapidly taller since I gave them a bit more light, just leafier.

The leaves are green but are turned downward slightly, is that OK? I am definitely not over-watering, it's well dry before I do that.

I'm wondering if I should pull the HPS closer to them:
