The lights are a professional grow light TM Lapy 1500W with grow and bloom feature, currently on grow (cobs only) and it sits 24" above canopy. They appear as if they are growing more canopy than length. I may have watered too little when starting and they wilted and came back under red bloom light several times. Hopefully they will grow taller. Wonder if I am doing something wrong.

They look good and really healthy! You come maybe back off the light a tiny bit. Take away a few hours a day
The goal is compact plants that is an indicator of optimal conditions
How old are your plants? Mine are about 3.5 weeks and are puny.
They look totally normal! I usually start them 3-4 weeks before I start my other varieties.
Scotch bonnets always start out short and squat. Keep doin what you’re doing and they’ll take off in the ground.
Lol, “oh no, my plants are doing way better than expected and having none of the usual problems, I don’t get to fix anything, what do I do? I garden so i have stuff to do…”
If they’re short, that means you have enough light good work they look great
If you don’t have problem with stale humid air than it’s ok.
But you certainly can dim the lights for 30-50% if you want to save electricity or get a bit longer seedlings. I would do it.
Ideal plants
Whats is that plastic thing with wire on that humuidity dome?
Nah man, that’s good! You have plenty of light, if you want you can trim the leaves that are on the soil to avoid rot, but you’re good
Short good
