I think you are on the right track with equipment and plants are OK (some stretch, one bent), but they should plump up in the last few weeks, but congrats for you can only get better.

Look ok for a first time mate try and aim for short and bushy plant look at the scrog technique that will help make the most of the area you have.
they do look streched and usually its caused from high temp in your tent try to keep it at a steady 25-28 and 18-22 at night.
In the last picture i wouldnt have that fan blowing so close im not sure if you just moved it for the picture or if you do have it running but it will cause wind burn.

THE FIRST GROW IS JUST THE BEGINNING ;)

hi senny thanks for the reply, i was going for bushy but that 1 hawiian snow just went tall over night so i tied it down alittle, about the fan its normally blowing above the plants just spreading the heat from above them(thats ok right) with the temp it does go alittle high i keep the window wide open so the room around the tent is chilled normally helps the temp drop but if you got any ideas for lowering the temp id really appreciate it. i do regually prune the fan leaves blocking the light so they look a little srcawny lol, ive never heard of the scrog technique but im gonna google it right now!!
