So my baby mary is around 3 weeks old. Shes got 5 sets of leaves if you include the round starter leaves and the first solo leaves which I cut off (the other 3 sets have 3 on each side... kinda weird I would have expected her to make 5's by now). She has 1 120watt CFL, 1 clear 40watt bulb, and 2 spiral florescent lights which are 13watts (energy savers equivalent to 60watts each I think) all pointed at her from about 2 inches away. I've also got a ceiling light on, but that probably doesnt add that many lumens. Foil also surrounds the area, and I've got a fan blowin on her.

So ANYWAYS, something has really been bothering me (and her?)... ALL the leaves are pointed almost straight up! Pretty much like this \\//

At first I thought it was a seedling thing, and that she would straighten herself out to a near horizontal angle within a week or so.. wrong. I don't think the leaves are stretching towards light, because the two florescents are above her and the other two are on the side... not to mention there should be practically no stretching with that much light.

Help please? Is this normal? This is really becoming a problem because my lights are burning the tips of her longest set... Of all the pictures of babies that I've looked at NONE of them seem to be growing like this.. But overall she seems very healthy. Strong stem, nice green leaves, rapid growth..

I wish I could take a picture so I wouldn't have to explain all this shit, but I don't have a camera. Sorry.

OKAY! I drew a very, VERY crude respresentation of my setup in paint, just to let you know whats going on if you're still completely lost. The leaves are bigger in real life than what I drew, but you get the picture. Please don't laugh.
