How am I doing?

Hey hey! Just hoping for some other opinions and advice on my first grow.
She's about 2.5 weeks old in my closet.
I have it set up with a 120 cfl 3500k in the lower left corner of the pic, in the reflector (yes that's another baby as well down there). Overhead I have the main 200 cfl and two 100 cfl on the tri sides.
Medium- miracle grow potting soil and some granular nutes...

It's a little off center because I was using the blue to sprout,but have now shifted them around.
She is starting to lean over a little bit and not sure if it was leaning towards the light or if I have a "problem"....

Any suggestions comments advice would be greatly appreciated!

-Live long and stay well medicated....or prosper...

I would recommend making a reflector for your top lights to get full effect and move them closer. The leaning of the plant is prop. as you mentioned just leaning for light. Looking pretty good.

Move the lights as close as you can to the plant without touching it.
Yeah? I wasn't sure if I should go closer with all 3 of them.

Also, side note...the soil is drying out on the surface but my stick still has moist on it when i pull it out. The leaves are a little droopy but the major veins are like a lime greenish....??

I can't find anything specific to "that" as far as deficiencies so I'm not sure if it ties in with the lights being too high?

Please ditch the aluminum foil. It's no good, it will create hot spots. If you have to be cheap then go buy an emergency blanket also known as a space blanket for about $5. Get those lights closer, it looks good though. Try to get the plant closer to the center of your container in the future.

Good Luck and Happy Growing!

The walls are already flat white in there...will that be ok by itself?

The he green veins have been getting worse throughout the day....anyone have anything?
