Puzzled 1st timer

Hi everyone,
trawled through a few of these pages but can't seem to find the same symptoms....so here's my question:
Growing my first ever plant (white widow) in a bubble pot (DWC). Been in the pot in clay balls for 2 weeks now, approx. 2 inches tall and is dark green & healthy looking. However the cotyledons and the 2 pairs of true leaves are pointing straight up and not spreading out.
Nutrient is a proprietory one from a garden centre mixed correctly, water is clean, and am limited by space to using 3x20w cfl's. (though could double this quite easily)
Any ideas you chaps?

Thanks

I experience the same thing under â??artificialâ?� low light. However, with the same plant under sunlightâ?¦no problem at all. Your present light is quite lowâ?¦..double it and you could well experience the same thingâ?¦..only to a lesser extent.

With the hydroton (clay balls) you could need Ph correction as they need to be Ph corrected before you start. Check your Ph before proceeding.

Hope that helps,
