Nice job on germinating it. I would wait to LST when it's about two weeks old, but I'm no expert on LSTing.

For your first grow I wouldn't LST. Just feed it, manage the pests, and take care of it. Use this time to learn the basics of gardening. Read read read. Take lots of notes. Then on your next grow try a new method and see if you can do better than your last crop.

When my seedlings were first started I had really bad stretching. I replanted them right up to the cotyledons and now they are growing just fine, so don't worry about it.

Ok ill bear that in mind . I think I will move them under a cfl soon as the sun isnt that great latly. It will need re-poting so ill do it when the time comes Im realy shocked at how much it grows in such short time. I just gota resist the urge to do something to the plant, Like water it hahaha

Maan... No LSTing no topping if it's an auto waste of time and potential..... Transplanting the stretchy stems and moving under the lights or morE sunlight will help..
