you're going to need a LOT more light. You can get highter wattage CFL's for cheap. I can see the stems are quite stretched.

id go with at least four daylight (6500K/blue spectrum) bulbs per plant for vegging and at least six warm white (2700K/red spectrum) per plant for flowering. Full spectrum is nice, but it emits unuseable colors and is somewhat inefficient. Get those lights as close as you can without burning the leaves, like 2-4 inches away.
The bigger plants could use some LST since the nodes are so stretched.
What kind of soil is that? What are you feeding them? How many hours of light and dark do they get? How big are those containers?

They are on a 18/6 light schedule. The two big ones were on a 24 hour light schedule up to 2 weeks old then were put on the 18/6. Just got two more lights for the bigg ones they are now under 2 28 watt panasonic full spectrum cfls and I'm getting another light for the seedlings the same as the other one. I'm feeding them miracle grow and the two big ones are in two litre pots

Also I just repotted the big one into the two litre pot and the leaves and plant are drooping a lot so I put a. Stick in the ground and ziptied it to to it. Is it normal for the plant to droop after repotting?
