Jojoe, not sure how strong your lites are but from your pics, it looks like some have several leaves on stem. You could probably set them under the grow lites but not too close if bulbs give off too much heat and scorch the babies. Guess you could be careful and set to the side of the grow lites and if you see the slightest stretching sideways of stems towards the grow lites, you may want to re-position.

I know you didn't ask for suggestion on the pork and beans, but if you want to hear one...If plant was mine, I would cut the stems down a few inches and where you make the cuts would result in new clusters appearing. this way you would get rid of some part of the stretched out stems and wait for clusters to form lower. With the cut parts, I would lay them on top of the soil and wait for them to root.
