that looks like a decent setup. looks pretty short is it a cabinet or something? either way, you can top your plants and keep them low. What lights are you using? 1 CFL is fine for brand new plants, but you will need more power soon. What nutrients will you be using? they can start to get a light feeding now. 1/3rd strength suggested on bottle/box probably.

good luck and keep us updated. we love pics :-)

they look perfectly healthy to me! a bit of stretch, but easy enough to fix with some more soil as already suggested.

I guess "babies" is the right word! we always want to know they are ok and keep checking them. Your babies look perfectly healthy as the pediatricain might say.

a useful tip, get the PH to a nice point. Ive noticed that babies with purple or magenta stems are sometimes nute locked or elementally deficient. Could be the strain, or light but at 2 weeks old I think they might be runnin a bit slow. Have fun
