first grow random bag seed

okay this is my first grow using cfls. I have 6 26 watt 6500k lights and 2 26 watt 2700k lights

running right now. today my plant is 11 days old from seed running at 18/6. the grow box is a

constant 80.1f. to me she looks kinda short but not sure the lights are at least 9 inches away

from the plant.any questions, concerns. advise please feel free to reply and let me know

Based on everything I've read so far man, I believe you should try to get your lights closer..

i had them pretty close for a while but its not getting taller so i figured if i move them further away; it will stretch a little towards the light

I hate it when my plants grow tall, I am always burying my stems so that there is like a 1/2 inch exposed. of couse there comes a time when the stem cant get any lower in the dirt but w/e. Short plants are desireable to many. I have a couple plants the same age as yours ( 2 days older) and yours look ok to me.

The plant looks very happy & healthy.
What kind of soil is that? I prefer to have a bit more pearlite in my mix, but that's me.
Again, looks good.
