i dont know wher you live but in my area craigslist.org beats ebay. but i got the bay right next door sooo. think of this as an investment. i mean yeah its fun to grow but but its rewarding to grow it well. do your homework, save some money and get the right stuff. as for your plant fallling over, pics will help. but it soundslike you got stretch armstrong seedlings. they stretch due to lack of llight and then cant support there own weight. many people use MG, i personally think its for panzies (you know, flowers ;) ) but yeah water let dry water let dry water let dry.theres not much else to due at this point. if they are too stretched you will need to xplant up to the cotys and make sure you have a fan gently blowing on them

yeah i agree move the lights closer, you got some strech. with floro's you gotta have them within 2 inch at least otherwise barely enough light makes it to the plant. light depletes exponentialy through air so about every 6 inches halves the amount of light
