Do the plants straighten themselves out???

yep the light will sort that out, you also have a tiny bit of air hitting them? if you get a small fan to make them all shake a bit it really really helps the stems

Thanks man! Yea i have a fan on them doing exactly that! Do you think those pots are too small for now? when should they be transplanted? Should i go straight to the two gallon im going to be growing them in later on, or a smaller one until then in between?

They look like there stretching a little to much. Is there any way to get that light closer? And go straight to 2g pots.

They do look a little stretched, but it is not worth risking moving the light closer in my opinion, especially when they are so young and small. The plants will grow closer to the lights all by themselves.

Ya i have been moving the light closer an closer at the beginning of each light session, to gradually get it close enough to the youngsters without doing any harm. thank you for the advice, and would moving to the 2gs after these get a bit more sturdy and stronger be my best bet, or should i just wait till these have almost outgrown the little cardboard grow pots?

Your right Kasey, I forgot about the 600w he has. Maybe get some Flouresents or CFLs lower down to help with this? I personally don't like any kind of stretching.
