Default spindly seedlings

Having a problem with spindly tomato seedlings - can't get the stems to
thicken up. Would it be a lack of light or too much light that would cause
this? The seedlings are a couple weeks old and about 3 to 4 inches tall.
Any ideas?


Light, light, light. Where are you growing them? A "sunny window"
provides a few hours of direct sunlight each day. Not enough.
Plentiful artificial light (i.e., gro-light fluorescents *very*
closely positioned) can provide enough to keep the plants happy.
