if that things thirty days old im sorry man but you need more light on that sucker it looks like it stretched a lot and its not healthy man....if you got a 400 watt hps on there its hard for them to live udner that at that stage some t5 flouros would help for the first couple weeks then you can move up to the hps but the red spectrum from HPS is better for flowering

Add 4 more 23w cfls. They have a pack of 4 of them at most stores for about $12
It will make a big diff

he says hes using a 400w hps. which is over kill imo for seedlings. 24 inches is kinda far but im not going to try to venture a guess as to how close to put it. i dont want to be responsible for killing them lol.

also the soil looks kinda dry.

it was my mistake dude. in first 2 week, my 400W high pressure sodium lamp work just 12/12 and 40 inc from top. that's why they streched i think. now 18/6 and 24 inc. is it enough or not. i also have another 400 W HPS lamp but second lamp is not worked by me.

why were you doing 12/12s for the first 2 weeks? you dont need more lights just need to be closer then the 40 inches (wasting that expensive 400w hps lol). you may be able to slavage the grow. just set your lights on a timer for 18/6 OR 24. dont jump back and forth. choose a day/night cycle and leave it. dicking with the lights can cause hermies. i learned this the hard way during my first grow. also avoid the temptation to check in on the kids when theyre sleeping. if its night time in the grow area dont go in. even the slightest amount of light will stress the plant and cause hermies. once again i learned this the hard way. i wanted to peek in on them now and then and i "didn't think it would hurt" (im not saying you do this or have this problem, just throwing that out there while i was on the subject).

yea and there is some more in back of the wardrobe.

not good... tin foil is crap; better to just paint the walls a flat white....
all of your conditions sound fine, but those plants definately look too small for 30days old; but i have no clue as to why:confused::dunce:....
