Too much light for young seedlings??

Morning all, just a quick question about my seedlings.

They are in pellets, in a small propagator and about 1.5" below a 125w 6500k CFL (8000 lums). I have them this close to avoid stretch, but worried they may find it stressfull being forced to work too hard too young. (like my kids will be when I finally have some lol ;-) )

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to waste the 30 notes I just spent on the seeds, which are Aurora Indica from Nirvana.

Thanks

Thanks for the help, I'll let you know how the A.I turns out.

In fact thanks for all the help, and as always for scrogs guy's totally content looking face.

So lose the hood and increase the distance a little?? I always that young plants like it Humid??

As far as heat goes, there really is very little coming off the bulb, and think the air around them can only be in low 20's at most (celsius/centigrade)
