With a light AND the computer running maybe the temps are too high?

yeah dude, those cfl's can get pretty hot that close up. try keeping a temp gauge close to the top of the plant, always. Are you using the computer fan for ventilation? you might want to change that up when it gets better.

What kind of soil are you using?

I don't think your soil should be rock hard but not too loose either. How often are you watering?

snowwhite420 now has quite the dilemna! keep the computer running, surf RIU to get your growing fix, and remove the plant? or shut down the computer, gut it, light proof it, and grow the plant right without the help of RIU? what to do, what to do!
