Sorry about not having the fuckin' pics..Gah, I know..Its disappointing..Anyway.

I have five seedlings on their first leafset that ive just transfered from vermiculite over to DWC. Now, since Ive transfered them a few days ago..They've grown out their second leafset, which is pointing drasticly upward into the air toward the lights. I was wondering if this is healthy..Its not drooping, and the stem is not weak. I just have never saw leafsets draw so upward toward light.

It's almost like asking "My dick got larger over night... is there anything wrong?"

Not really...The leafs are pointed up..Like "| |" instead of flat across, or slightly 45 degreed upward toward the light.

I've got six flourescents with like 12, 000 lumens total about 3-4" away from them.

ok move them closer, like maybe a foot away. Are they stretching to the light? is the stem getting a lot longer? you do mean feet right? I cant remember if the 2 lines mean ft or inches..lol how sad

If you are talking about 3-4 inches, then I dont know what the deal is. If you could, pics would be HUGE help.

Still tryin to work on the pics..And no, I mean inches. The lights are close enough, believe me. Maybe it has something to do with starting them off in flowering....

Does your plant look something like the attached file? if that is what you are referring to, thought I'd let you know that I was informed reaching/praying is normal with the light being that close, I have some of my plants pretty close and they seem to be doing ok, it seems to stop with growth.

Yep, thanks a bunch man..My plants all look pretty similar to that one, maybe a few just slightly more pointed up. Good to know that my plants are doing okay..Still nice and fresh in green color, not too dark or light..So I think they will be fine.
