My plant wants to hug the sun.

Growing it by the window sill and every 4 hours or so, it'll be bent towards the sun. I rotate it so that doesn't just droop over. Should I be doing this?
It's getting about 8 hours of sun, 8 of fluorescent, 6 hours of dark.

(white widow - 2 days old and 2 inches tall ^^)

Oh nice ^^ good lucky fellow Ww grower :]
And thanks, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't making the stem weaker by doing so.

try get a fan gently blowing over it simulating wind, this will strengthen it alot

yes it is normal for your plant to bend over backward for sunlight, Keep rotating it I guess if you have the time. Eventually the window sill and those cfl's wont be enough.
