sounds like ure little fellas are stretching. Move em closer to the light, but dont burn em, just sorta test the heat with your hand. Move em closer quick so the ones that havent popped outta the jiffy pellets dont stretch too.
Peace, hav a good day

For seedlings and a 600 watt light, like 4 feet away maybe more.

You really shouldnt use big lights for seedling, its too easy to fry them.

hey i agree with the goddess. i would probably use cfl's or a weaker hps if you have one. but if you dont, then you gotta figure out the height and stuff as you dont wanna fry em.
Peace

From what ive read a fluorescent light works best at your stage. If you have messed up the seeds like woomeister said do some research and start again. It couldn't of taken more than 2 weeks to get where you are. If their stretching move the light closer. If they stretch too much replant them so part of the stem is under the soil. Works wonders. Dont forget to get a fan in there for a slight breeze.
