How am I doing?

These are my 1st ones. I started the germ. on 4/4 and got 13 out of 18. On 4/6 I started them in Peat pellets and 2 CFL's. On 4/7 they broke soil. and took off, and they were stretching. I added 4 more 42w CFL's and shrouded in mylar and that seemd to help a lot. On 4/12 I transplanted to larger pots with MG Organic. I'm only using distilled water and no nutes.

I noticed that a few seem a bit wilted looking. I was thinking that may have been due to the transplant. I also buried the ones that were stretching a bit deeper. But I think that a couple seemed that way before the transplant, not sure.

They have been getting water once the soil was almost dry to the touch and the pellets felt a bit lighter than when freshly watered. So I'm pretty sure it's not too much/ too little.

I examined the leaves and they dont feel wilted. They almost seem thick and paper-like. They seem to be growing like that. I am keeping the lights within 2 inches of them and they don't seem to be growing up but the leaves are growing...just kinda funny as compared to other pics I've seen.

Any ideas? Should I just leave em alone for the time being?
