Put a small fan in the room; it will strengthen the plants, lower your temps and invigorate your plants. My rule of thumb with distance from light; place the back of your hand directly above the tops of the plants and under the light(s); if your hand feels warm in 30 seconds you need to move the light further away. A fan blowing over this will cool the temp and allow for a closer light. Regarding the pots; good job on the recycling, I would suggest you cover them (paint the pots/wrap with duct tape) to reduce light on the roots. It is my experience that light on roots is not good (slows root development, slower plant development). Nice group of girls.
