Is this normal with Pineapple Express?

Just started growing two pineapple express strains and they both seem lanky and unable to support itself up. The third strain is Blue Mystic and looks very strong. It's using the same water, same nutrients, same reservoir, same light, same everything. I even see both all the plants roots reach the water so I'm not sure if this is normal for an auto flowering PE plant or if there is something wrong with it.

Any feedback would be much appreciated.

The light is about 2 feet above the plants but it's really bright in the grow box so do you think it will make a big difference?

Dam, nice setup. So it's because there's not enough light then? I'll run out and get some more lights now and lower the dang thing. Wonder why they would sell a grow box with the light that high. I got it from dealzer.

You need to get those lights only a few inches above your plants. Make that res lightproof or you will get algae bloom. Keep the temps below 70 or you will prob get slimed unless you are running bennies like aquashield, which you should for dwc.
