stretched seedlings with pictures pics

strain: Northern Lights X Big Buds
Soil: Fox Farms Ocean forest with 25% more pearlite
temp: 71-73f
light schedule: 18/6
Lights: 6 40watt 12t 6500kv daylight fluorescents (home depot lamps and ballast)
Light height: 1-2 inches
Age: 5 days after sprout
Humidity: 38%
water ph: 5.7
watering schedule: watered at 4 days when soil was no longer damp at 1/2 inch

Notes;
leaves are huge on some
stock/stem is purple and hairy
the coin is a quarter used for size reference


the seedling with the largest leaves looks like its bending and going to fall over...
is this normal? are these stretched, and if so what can I do to fix it? No fan, should I be using one? I have a 600w hps and MH lamp should I use one of these instead?
