thats great, if there room in the propagator put temp/humidty meter in there, the temp will be higher than the room temp and the humidty could be 80- 90%
I would lift one corner 1/2" use a lighter of something to drop the humidty down to 60-70% would give you great results

Id grow them on 18/6 saves on the electric bill and lets them sleep. How close is the 400 ? Stems do look a bit dark. Are you feeding plane PH water and letting them dry in between ?
 
Shouldn't fill the pot to the top with soil when u plant the seeds. Then as they streach you can add more soil to support the weak steams.

put the propagator lid back on but lift one corners an inch
this will raise the humidity.

if the temps are good you don't need an extractor fan or intake fan for the next 3-4 weeks
extractor fan/filter are there to stop the smell, keep the humidity low and supply the plants with fresh air
at this stage your humidity low, plants don't really smell till there 4-6" high
there no canopy so you don't need fresh air, just open the tent twice a day will do the job

if you don't let the top soil dry out it could cause the roots to rot again
