How old are these, whats your soil, how much sun have they received daily(hrs), and how deeply did you put in the soil?

To be nice as possible, i wouldn't grow with miracle grow. Still has nothing to do with stretching though. Your not ferting are you? Since your using moisture control soil, i would get a meter at wal-mart-Lowes $12.00. it will detect moisture, PH, and light. I really think its a combo of to much moisture and to little sunlight. They really need to be on an 18-6 light schedule untill your ready to flower them. Go to walmart and get a 2 ft. 3000k fluorescent fixture. really cheap and alternate between the sun and the fluoro. At about 4 weeks start nuting very softly, since miracle grow has plenty of nutes. If you notice any problems after nuting then stop! And let the plant dictate what it needs. Good luck and God Bless.

transplant them and bury them up to the top of the stem.
easy done.
Exactly

Don't make too much out of it man! Especially when they are that young, if they stretch down the road then worry about it then bro.

You ar all good, one step at a time son!

i just put them in my tent i put some dry coco husks around the base of all my plants
From the looks of that picture, you can probably get your light a little bit closer to the plants.

Looks like it is around 2 1/2 feet from the tops. I usually keep mine around 16" - 20".

Just a thought!
