First, stop worrying.

They look fine to me OVERALL. Plants always show signs on some leaves here and there. Wait a couple days and watch the progress closely.

It could be a reaction to the nutes in the soil, a sort of AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!. Super Charge ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also,

it could totally be a temp things. you know, when you're uncomfortable, you do things like move around, plants do too.

yup, i am.. ive got 4 plants under 2 30wat daylight + 1 19 wat softlight..its not alot of light but my box is very small and its more than enough light in there.
how old are your plants? where did you get the 30w cfl's? how many watts do they produce? i also have 4 plants and i have 6 27w=100w cfls. i have my plants in the closet the size of a port-a-pottie. i think its enough now but not sure what im gonna do when i go into flowering stage. i was thinking i would just switch to the soft white cfl's do you think it would work?

the soft whites are good for flowering i heard.. i found the 30wats at kmart, they are equivalent to 100+ watts, they put out 1845 lumens a piece.. i have my plants in a very small box (i grow small plants, about a foot and half) so the light is enough for me.. i think u have enough light as long as u have them nice a close... u have any pics of the setup?>

over watering maybe or if it is hot in there which i doubt with cfls and u havent soaked like let the soil run through the pot for way to long u must be under watering it especiially in that type of soil id guess to much watering but follow these guidelines as a line to water too little waters never a problem compared to over and poke nice round holes at the bottom of the cup best i got
