pretty skinny stem on them, your light is either too weak or too far away, but I've seen a lot worse. Got a fan blowing on them to stiffen the stem ? What spectrum is your light ?

Don't blow the fan directly on them, but yeah, you need the fan, i was about to say the same thing as far as putting the light as close as possible and you also need to turn that aluminum foil on the dull side to reflect the light, the glossy side absorbs the light......the lights can be as little or as comparable to 40 watt floro's but whatever light you use, you need to put the plants as close to them as you can with out burning them......if you use floros, 2 to 4 inches from the top of the plants.....hps are more around1 foot or more depending on the heat they put out....but they do look pretty good....

Ya my lights aren't to good i know i have 2 fluorescents lights on them for now yes i have a fan blowing on them, not sure what the spec's on the lights are right now i will have to check..My plan is to start them inside and then put them outside, is this a good idea..I would like to wait of find out what they are first...
