Are you giving them enough light?

[multipletrees]

i have two ott lite bulbs on a 19/5 schedule everyday. the plants are usually 4-5" away from the light at all times

Wait, what kind of light are you using.

[WeedyBoyWonder]

for a month them plants are really small. when you go into flower, you want to double if not triple the amount of light you used to veg.

the light seems 2far away.

[multipletrees]

what is a good distance to keep them at?

Better lighting for sure...

Drop your lights to within a couple inches of the plant tops.
You need to be using at LEAST CFLs for an indoor grow, if not a proper agricultural fixture.
