Firstly, I'll be John Doe or JD for short. I am a fairly new grower and have just started these seedlings. My setup for this is nothing special at all, it uses a fan I set on low just to keep the mold away, a 23w 1600 lumen cfl light bulb ( Which I am soon to switch to a Led light ), and it will be indoor until it is a right size then I'll be setting them outside where they'll grow on from there, it is in soil, there are six of them, it is watered every 3 days, we are on day two, 4 have sprouted, but as I am a new grower I'm gonna run into plenty new things I could try with these babies. Anyone is very welcome to join me on this trip and give me tips on how I could upgrade and build a better setup on the way! :)
 
We are walking into our 4th day as yesterday was my first watering, I on lights around 6:30 to 6:50 am as its the time I wake up around and sunrise comes up at this time, I am putting my light on its schedule depending in the sunrise and sunset, My stems have started stretching a bit so I am deciding on what light should I use instead, any tips on that would be helpful.

If your seedlings are stretching,you need to get the light closer to them-with cfl's the bulbs should be about 5" from the seedlings, or they'll just keep stretching till they fall over.
With that many seedlings,you should have 3 bulbs-1 for every 2 plants,and the bulbs should be positioned directly above the seedlings.
You want the growth to happen at the top of the plant, not on the stem.
They can stretch another 2" overnight, so you should get the lights closer sooner rather than later....
