They’re a bit more leggy than I think is healthy, but hopefully repotting them will help.

Need to get them more light. If the days are warm enough move them outside. If not supental light is needed.
It’s definitely not warm enough here yet. I do have two grow lights on either side of the table that are on 12-13 hours a day, but I might try the tin foil trick someone else mentioned.
Move the lights closer to the top of the plants.
Light follows the inverse-square law. So decreasing the distance between the lights and the plants by 1/2 increases the the intensity of the light by 4x.

Currently I can’t see any alt text on this image.
There are people here who participate in Mastodon with a screen reader. In order to be able to imagine what has been posted, they need an image description as detailed as possible.

Yeah, I get that this is important to certain people…and that writing better image descriptions leads to better inclusion.
On the other hand, at times it is not really helpful to come around like a snobby-bossy know-it-all that tells people how they are so wrong with what they do…
How do you find the seedling heat mat? Does it work well?
I’ve been germinating my seeds with a tupperware in a bit of soil on a high shelf, but it only really works when I have the heater on in the house. Now nothing is sprouting cause the heat is off.
This is my first time growing anything from seed, so I don’t really have anything to compare it to, but I think it’s been helpful? I’m in the Northeastern US and it’s still cold here, so I think it’s been good to have.
I find that most seeds sprout well without a heat mat, but for peppers especially I bought one last year and I’m really glad I have one now. I use it for all seeds that like it warm and my sourdough starter. No problems with germination that way anymore.
It’s not “needed”, but it will make more seeds start and allow them to sprout faster.
I would rather have a 90% germ rate in a few days at ideal conditions, than 50% germ rate and it take 3 weeks.
Lol sourdough starter, OK I’m sold. The high shelf where I sprout seeds is also where I’ve been letting my dough rise cause the house is too cold
