My 1st grow -Indoor-CFL-Soil-unknown strain-

So this is my first attempt to grow some marijuana. I don't know what kind of Strain I got, because I didn't bought the seeds from any on-line shop or anything.
At first, I was thinking about growing just 1, but to avoid getting only a male one, I decided to use the 3 seeds that I had. Only 2 sprouted.
This is what they looked like before getting them to the soil


The day after, they went to the soil. I used a pre-mixed soil and I'm also using 2 blue colour CFL
1 day after getting the sprouted seeds in the soil, the first signs of the plants appear. 3 more days and the first leafs were already getting big
1st day

3rd day


By that time, I started noticing that one of the plants was growing a little bit slower, and I assumed that it had to do with the way the seed germinated, because the root was kind of twisting backwards when I got it to the soil.
Anyways, for a few days, to keep things safe and hidden, they had to go trough some hard time... the place where they were was a bit too hot and I didn't had time to take some pictures, but as soon as I could, they got to a a more ventilated place.
8th day



I kept doing as I was, giving them only light and water, 24h light cycle and watering every day, depending on the soil moisture.
10th day



11th day

Now I started noticing another thing. The first leafs are getting little yellow dots...

Could this be nutrient deficiency? (I'll post the amount of nutrients in the soil mixture tomorrow hopefully, if it has any) By the way, should I keep spraying water on the leafs, or just the soil? Shouldn't the leafs be kind of going up, instead of hanging down?
I'll update with additional info on the soil mixture, CFL watts, pot size and anything you need to know.
Thanks for reading 
If any one can make their guess and tell me what kind of weed am i growing, I would appreciate it =p Hope that some of you can give me some advices

Yea I was thinking that I might be over-watering them, so, I'll try to cut them some slack and see how it goes... so here is more information.
Soil: They are growing in a ½ liter pots and the soil mixture I'm using is Compo Sana Universal. It as around 350 ml/l of N, 350mg/l of P and 400mg/l of K.
Nutrients: So far, I've been giving them water only. Usually once a day.
Light: They have been in 24h day cycle since they sprouted. I'm thinking about starting to change it to about 20h day 4h night. There are 2 9w 6500k CFL hanging about 10cm above them. All together it is equal to a 100W lamp.
I'm missing a thermometer, humidity meter and pH meter too. I hope to get them next week when I have a little more time... I think that's all the information I can give so far
About the spotting, it looked like calcium deficiency (check http://www.growery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/9620) but I think I'll try to see the right amount of water first instead of getting all fancy products that I don't need...
now for some pictures
13th day
 the smaller one (this doesn't have that many yellow dots...)

 the bigger one. it looks like the yellowness is spreading to the upper leafs...
 and this doesn't seem to be getting any better... We'll see how it goes
That's all I can tell you right now about them I'll keep you posted with the latest news on them 
Thanks for the help Goombah
-----------
Just found this post about the same yellow dots... probably pH levels aren't good enough... I'll see what I can do to fix it and keep you posted If anyone has a clue on what to do, just tell me to see if they grow happy =p

At least now I know that what I have isn't enough. Ill start upgrading it as soon as I can. By the way, I checked them a while ago, and although the yellow dots aren't smaller or anything, they looked happy
 

I just left them to sleep for about 2/3 hours and after turning the lights again, it looked like they had much more strength. So, can any one tell me... Is it better to have the lights off for a few hours instead of 24h day? Or does each one have they're own opinion about that?
Anyways thanks for replying Hefe

I'm glad I check on them more then once a day... Just forgot to turn the fan on and the temp climbed up from 15/20ºC to 30/35... Anyway, it is on again so the temp will be as it is supposed to.
now for the pictures. This is the 31st day
the defoliated one
 
 
now the other one, it was the smallest one before I believe

now I hope you can see the purple branches and at the start of the leafs
 
Anyone have any idea on what it might be?
I'm missing the pH meter (couldn't find it yet and didn't had that much time too look for it) but they kind of look healthy to me. The yellow leafs in the second one where already like that, it ain't anything new.
Next pictures will be taken with a proper camera, not the cellphone like all the others
