Leaf growth looks usual for what I get but they seem a bit stretched, might be the angle but they look a little stretched to me. I'd buy the stem a bit!

They look perfectly normal for 3 day seedlings. It's normal for them to stretch at first. After hardening them off under the lights for a few more days you'll want to lower it if you can. What kind of lights are you using for them?

Thise cfl's need to be a couple inches from the plant... After a few weeks you will need to repot as they will get roor bound. Be sure and punch some holes near the bottom of the cups for ventilation and runoff.
