You can put them under your lights without a problem. Just start them (the lights) up a little, and lower them some each day until you have them tucked right up next to the cfls. Now...my big question. What are you using for a soil mix? I've never seen anything like that before. | |||

| Seedlings look pretty contorted when they come out of the shell. You would be too if you were compressed into the size and shape of an egg  They will spread out and grow towards the light, that is if they keep growing. Brown sprouts is a bad sign - could be damping off. Did you add anything to this soil mix? Seedlings don't like or need ferts/nutes of any kind.
