How old are these, whats your soil, how much sun have they received daily(hrs), and how deeply did you put in the soil?

10 days old i started in a germanation tray transfered them 4 days ago using a mix of miracle gro(moisture control) coco and perlite they r outside so i guess 14 hrs of light a day put them in about the size of the seed

To be nice as possible, i wouldn't grow with miracle grow. Still has nothing to do with stretching though. Your not ferting are you? Since your using moisture control soil, i would get a meter at wal-mart-Lowes $12.00. it will detect moisture, PH, and light. I really think its a combo of to much moisture and to little sunlight. They really need to be on an 18-6 light schedule untill your ready to flower them. Go to walmart and get a 2 ft. 3000k fluorescent fixture. really cheap and alternate between the sun and the fluoro. At about 4 weeks start nuting very softly, since miracle grow has plenty of nutes. If you notice any problems after nuting then stop! And let the plant dictate what it needs. Good luck and God Bless.

Don't make too much out of it man! Especially when they are that young, if they stretch down the road then worry about it then bro.
You ar all good, one step at a time son!

no problem mate.
this has happened to me a few times and once transplanted and buried deep all comes good as the stem still grows thicker when buried..
(sort out your lighting).

From the looks of that picture, you can probably get your light a little bit closer to the plants.
Looks like it is around 2 1/2 feet from the tops. I usually keep mine around 16" - 20".
Just a thought!

here is a rough guide to lamp heights for mh lamps.
keep it about 12" and work it down from there once you know the plant can handle it.
