Hi
I have 5 auto flowers (2xFast Bud Orange Sherbet, 2x g13 labs do-si, 1x ethos banana daddy). I'm using 5 gal 19l fabric pots biobizz light mix ,7 inch ventilator 7/24 running and using Soler&Palau TD-350 for clean air and using it every 15 min. Humidity is between %60-80. I have 480w quantum boards for lighting(distance between lamp is 70cm 27 inch schedule is 18/6) which has problem now I able to use just 160w of them %40 dimmed. I germinated on wet towel and put them directly to soil 5 gal. Now I'm on 11-14th day since they sprout. The problem is they are too small and they have long shaft. Do you think I have light problem? Also I'm thinking feed them in a few days what nutrients do you recommend? Please save my baby girls.

Thanks.

I ordered new lights. They will come in a week. Do you think is it saveable or do I need to start again with new seeds?

Looks like to me your dirt is about two inches away from the top of your bag. Through a little more dirt ain there won't hurt to cover up that stem a little bit for some support. But I have never ran into this problem.

You could try replanting them deeper into the media. They very delicate at this stage but you’ve got nothing to lose other than starting again.

My seedlings always stretch like that. I always start them in a half full pot, and top up the dirt when they stretch.
Without a dedicated seedling light, like a fluorescent kept close, that is normal.
Dont disturb the new roots by trying to repot at this stage.

Thank you guys. So I will add little bit more soil for support the stem. Should I do it now or should I do it when I get the new lights? I hope lights will come in a week. What about nutrients? Do they help little bit? Offcourse 1/4 dose nutrients

Yes on the soil, No on the nutes.
The light you have now isnt a problem. You could have those plants on a windowsill and get the same result. It will thicken up once it grows a few more leaf sets and bigger roots
Run the lights longer than 18/6 if you want faster growth

I only use 2 300-60 Mars Hydro LED, I could sleep 9n them. I normally leave about 16-18" away when first planting the seed. It keeps my nodes good and tight.
