put a small rocks on the very top of them. that will make them stop growing up so much and grow thicker most the time, but pics would help.

stretching occurs when there is a lack of light. up the lights and the stretching should stop. also, try to get a fan in there. the breeze will make your stems significantly thicker.

Moving the lights closer to the plant tops may also be a temporary solution to stretching. But definitely keep a fan blowing on them to strengthen the stalks and stake them up if they can't stand on their own.
