I need some help/advice on my little cactus here. The one I am immediately concerned about is the one to the far right in the picture. I plucked this guy from the ground in the southern nj coast area. The growth rate has been very fast but as you can see, spindly. My apt doesnt have the proper light conditions at all (north facing windows) coupled with a large Norway spruce which partially blocks sunlight as well. I put in a plant light (about 2 weeks ago) to attempt to get them to grow fuller and rounder and now the one to the far right is turning yellow quick (started 2 days ago). Whats going on here? Sun(light) scorch? The light was not VERY close, about 3 feet away. For now ive moved the cacti back a bit and behind some other plants for protection.

Thanks in advance, eek.
