We'll need a lot more info.

What part of the world do you live in?
Did any pests/disease affect the plant while it was outside?
How far is each light from the plant?
And why are you using 5 30w's for an 8" plant?

It could be stunted because it's getting too much light.
There is a point where plants cannot process any more light..

Check it's roots, make sure the medium is evenly moist, not flooded and not dry, ever.

I'm ASSUMING your growing in soil.

Is it just drinking pure water? Any fertilizers/additives?
Any accidents that you want to share?

I live in Ireland, I know not the sunniest place but i thought id have lights by the time it had germinated,
No pest or disease,
no more than 2 inces away, its not too hot checked wit back of hand,
i didnt think that you could have too much light since you want t re-create the sun.?
yes soil, pure water, no fert/additives,
no accidents.

also every time theres new top growth the lowest leaf set turn yellow and fall of, normal or not.?

how much is 2 much water, when pepole say "run off" whats the definition.?

Run off means letting some water pour out to flush some nutrients and avoid salt buildup and later nutrient lockout.
About 10-20% of the water you pour in should come out the bottom.

Plants of any species naturally shed leaves that don't get sunlight.
If you look at a tree outside your window, every spot where a branch comes out used to have a leaf sticking out.
The tree has shed those leaves years ago, and left a branch behind, while focusing leaf growth at the canopy.
