In a word - YES! Alternatively, if you're running your lights at less than 100%, you can increase the strength (I run all my plants under 100% lights all the time)...
These little ones have been really searching for the light and I see you've actually had to stake them to keep them upright.... I would suggest you add more soil to each pot pulling it up around the stem.... the newly buried stem will then grow more roots and will have a better chance of becoming good and strong and thick... but add the soil to the entire pot, not JUST around the stem...
Good luck!

The plant will start to turn away from its light source when you get to close if that helps

Thanks everyone for the comments!
I can only bring the lamp closer. The lights don't have a potentiometer to increase intensity.
The stake is to locate the seed and provide support if necessary.
I'm going to try filling with more soil to give it stability, because they are already in the final 11-liter pot.
Should I try then at 40 cm as @massivetids suggests?

Yes put the lamp closer, try 40 cm first and lower in small steps if they keep streching. You can always check if the lamp is not too warm by holding your hand under the lamp on the same distance as that you are planning to place the lamp from the plants. If it does not feel to warm on your hand after 10 seconds it will be fine for the plants too.

yeah, if you increased light a bit -- power or less distance both work -- then you are good.. wait and see. you can always bury it a bit deeper on a transplant to shorten it up.
Take notes of the timing and power/distance used. Make a better SOP for next time. eventually you'll do everything the same way it just gets burned into brain. environments make for variance in need, so it's a bit different for you than the next person but very similar. always expect some adjustment for your garden.

Light spectrum and stressBy switching between LED spectrum: Would the plants stress out ?
The veg spectrum only was producing too much stretch due to lamp being not close, imo. So started using both spectrum and the light intensity is way higher now.
Also they get some sun light due to tent position.

This is my first time using the FloraNova series and I feel like it's doing a good job. Are the dark-stained roots normal for this series?
My roots couldn't look healthier overall now, but I still don't know if the off coloring is still from the root rot.Week 8

stretchy seedlingHi i’m growing next to a window with approximately
10 hours of light + 4 hours of light from a 4W led bulb.
The plant is kind of stretchy, not falling over but I added a stick for safety just in case. Is it healthy? Will it be normal and recover?
I’m worried a lot. What to do?
