What kind of lights? Stem is very stretched indicating wrong bulb, bulb too far away etc. It also looks very moist in that soil. They never need ferts before 3 weeks old too so don't feed. What soil? Get a fan blowing them.

Supercropping could probably help you too. Its a method used to create shorter, stronger plants by slightly pinching and damaging the stem so that it can heal and be better than it was. If you search, you can probably find a good tutorial on it.
