    Dont worry about the curling, that's classic transplant shock.

    You can see it mostly in picture number seven on the far first set of threes... Never had this happen before so it kinda worries me... It's my second time growing I've absolutely no idea what I'm doing just going off of tips and hints from other acquaintances that grow themselves...

    The other curling UP is usually a bit of heat stress, raise the light a bit and see if that subsides.

    Thriving? The amount of blades on the leafs lets you know how the plant is doing. after 1 month you should have fan blades with 8-10 fingers or more(Plant vigor). Some strains are limited to this but most arnt.
     
    Worm casting are to hot. Most likely causing the wilt or curl in the leaf.

    Yes moving the light did help, noticed an improvement overnight they look much better!

    Real og what do you mean by 8-10 fingers or more? These plants were started from seed, they are three weeks old today. Idk if this helps with what your trying to explain to me but the package said they are an indica autoflowering strain called orange bomb

    A bit of your problem is stretching, you have too little of light per plant.
     
    This is a purple kush I have that was around 3 weeks in this pic (I chopped the top but notice how much closer and bushy the nodes are.  If you want a better harvest, you'll need to add more than 1 cfl per plant, otherwise you'll end up with small buds scattered all over begging for light.

    I actually am going to change all my light bulbs to 100 watt cfls than get three more lamps to make it two lamps per plant, as I had said before in a previous post in about two months I'll be planting outside

    ImageUploadedByGrasscity Forum1433118813.154586.jpg ImageUploadedByGrasscity Forum1433118825.276827.jpg do you think two sets of these 100 watt bulbs would make a sufficient light source till transplanted outside?
