Welcome To My First Grow!

So I have 2 GSC x White Widow Extr I bought from ILGM they seem to be growing fine other then the mistake I've made on my own. but I conquered and overcame a few obstacles on my own, but this is also why I'm making this thread in the newbie section . I need help with the rest of the grow, cause it's getting late in veg I've kept them rather small for a while cause I didn't want them to croud the space. I've done my own topping and LST techniques to both plants So please don't laugh if they are ugly.

Now on to the mistakes I made. At the very beginning I bought the seeds, and put one under 2 very bright florescent lights of the wrong spectrum in shitty soil for the first week of its life it had very slow growth and got burned from being too close. I don't have any pictures of that horrible start, But I will post pictures of the current setup after all this.ANYWAYS. After it had a bad start I ordered some FFOF soil which brought it right back to life. Then I went and order my ph up and down and meter.
I finally had my girl in some good soil and ph'd water. So I bought a Roeladro 45w led and added my second girl they grew great all was perfect in my garden... BUT THEN. I noticed something wasn't right. . There was a hole in my leaf.. Later that day I found a damn gnat flying and a little white bug on one of my leafs! So I've ordered some neem oil extract which should be here today. I've just sprayed them with soap yesterday. So now that I have all y'all up to date I can begin with the now.
Let's Finish This Thing!

Hey great, even with the problems at the beginning they look great.

Careful with the height! They will pretty much double once you switch.
Thanks man! yeah that's as low as I can get it right now I've been keeping em pretty short even though it's only 45w and how high it is they still haven't seemed to stretch which is nice, But I thinks it's cause it's been going through some stress.

Just a suggestion for that box... I see purple coming out, that means light can get in too... light seal to make sure you don't further stress them!

Thank you for the suggestion. But it's my fault for not adding it's also closed behind a sliding glass door, so no light gets in, and a very small amount that goes out..I also have to mention I think the bugs came from leaving my window with no screen open a couple nights not thinking about it . I'm in cali it's hot af right now lol.
