Well from seed they take a little to take off. About 1month. Now in your situation you have about 13 days left. remember your lights are week! You would know best. Have your plants started to take off yet, were you can notice good growth every couples days under your flour? If not, than their is something that is inhibiting their growth and than to answer your question: it would not be normal..
What get's me is your stems. They look mature-to me and I would like to see your plants become bigger and more laterals by that maturity.. All you can do is keep growing :)

Oh- try giving them a feed!! If you do this, I am sure you will see some action!!!!!! Give it a shot!!! Get pH to 6.4 :)

Well I feed from the top now. I do this because I stopped dinking around! U know the idea why to feed at the bottom but after this many days, just feed from the top. Give them a feed and watch what happens :) Glad u cought them. Just let them dry out and they will look as good as new :)

To tell u the truth, they are a little behind as far as size goes. Dont get me wrong, they look happy and I think u are doing a good job. I just think u can be doing better. Everyone can be. Thats what its all about, right?
Some things that I would check are:
water quality (PH, PPM,)
Temps are between 70-80F
Add more light if u can (3 23 watt cfls per plant will get u a couple little monsters)
Add Nutrients if u havent already. Overall they look good.

Awesome petedav, glad your plants are moving.. Remember to feed feed water and keep your PPM low because of the lights you are using.. Just sit back and lision to them grow!
