1st Grow - 5 Double Gum + 2 Pure Sativa

Hello,

These pics are of plants that were planted from seed 17 days ago... they spent the first 11 days under 24h 250w CFL and are now getting about 9 hours 400w hps on top of that..... The sativa's have raced off upwards but by keeping them close to the CFL and topping them I seem to be keeping there height under control... I have had a small oscillating fan on them pretty much constantly and the stems are looking healthy and strong... They had there first very low dose of nutes yesterday and I intend to bring this up slowly - I have chosen organic soil and fertilizer. I plan to keep them vegging until the new year and
then go for it. I only have space for three plants really, so hoping at least one of the seven is a girl!! The 5 Double Gums have wildly varied phenotypes (one of them looks very strange - see pics) and my main concern is that 2 of the DG's look so bushy I cant see where there would be space for bud!
Can my plants be too bushy??

Can I encourage them to grow taller(have raised lights slightly too see if this helps)??

Will they stretch when I put them into flowering?

Any advice or help appeciated - without this web-site i would not have got this far - thanks to everyone who's advice I've studied!

Having trouble uploading photos ( think site is having problems)- but will do soon.


Thanks
