How do these seedlings look?

Thu May 24, 2012 5:01 pm

Are these leggy? They are Basil, Dill and Calendula. Not sure if they're supposed to look like this or not...

They look like tiny babies, which is fine if that is what they are. Looking ok so far. It's hard to tell about legginess in seedlings so small. They will need to be outdoors or under lights in order not to become leggy.

By the time they get true leaves on them you will need to uncrowd them, give them their own pots.

Congratulations on getting some seeds started! :)

Well, that was 6 days ago and they were tiny. If they are doing well, by now they should be sturdy-ing up a bit.

Well, some were. The Dill are still very thin. Thing is, we've had a sudden heatwave and a lot of the seedlings must have not been able to take it and died. :(
