1) I would say you are well under 18....2)growing in your parents home is ridiculous. 3)You know nothing about lighting so don't risk burning your parents house down for 1 plant not worth it.

I don't grow..I just know.

Come on people, POUR IT ON! tell him that he cant grow in his parents house. Im sick of you people trying to be D.A.R.E. Officers.| He obviously deosnt care about growing under his parents noses! AND NIETHER DO I. My parents take my pipes and my weed and have returned them to me. Im well aware of the risks and im willing to take them. I only grow 2 plants for a couple weeks and bring it somewere els to finish. I suggest you start them inside and throw them outdoors, Growing a full plant for 7 months in your house is over the top and risky. Everybodys situation w/ there parents is different, And it deosnt sound like your parents are even cool w/ the weed situation in your house = I dont know your situation so I wont bash you. Finding a grow operation in my house would not surprise my parents. Growing in a cardboard box is a stupid idea tho. That has FIRE HAZARD writen all over it...

NOW TO ANSWERE YOUR QUESTION WITHOUT BASHING YOU.-----
I have the same problem man. My plants are stretchy also and have been growing for 2 weeks. I was using an Incandescent lightbulb at first which is not effective at all. this caused the plants to stretch. I changed to a florescent and i keep the light hovering about an inch above the plants, And i started putting a fan on them when i could. This stoped the stretching. I also added more soil to give the stem support, And you could also use a toothpick and some sewing thread to keep that thing from falling over. < I just asked the same question you did about a couple days ago and that was the best advice.

=THINGS THAT WILL HELP=
-Add soil
-tassle that thing up
-Keep the light close enough were it wont burn the plant
-Use a fan if possible

A HPS BULB IS TO MUCH FOR 1 PLANT | ONE FLORESCENT WILL DO FINE.

- Growing in a window cill wont work man. | believe me ive tried...
You need to get a florescent bulb on that thing pronto, If you cant get away
w/ having a light on for 12 hours then it just isnt worth it.

Orly? Because that's basically my set up, (See pictures below) Cardboard box, covered in aluminum foil, with pieces of a wire hanger punched through the top. Keeping the light fixed to the top of the whole thing...
Maybe I use a different light? 6400K Compact Fluorescent. I figured HPS was the acronym for something close to what I use.

Of course, my parents are allowing me to grow, because we already agreed that I'd share the rewards.

the best way I have found to support weak Stems when they are young is to take a fat straw, for maybe that extra thick milkshake, cut it to the length needed, then split it length wise. Then just open it up, put the stem inside and then let it coil around the stem. Then gently push it a little bit into the dirt.. WALLA.. Instant automatic adjustable plant popper-upper...lol
