Seedlings getting too heavy up top?

[DrDukePHD]

These sure seem like they're getting top heavy & starting to lean over (1 so far required a toothpick & bread twistie for support).

I got the fan just above hoping to strengthen. The stems aren't too long, i didn't let em stretch. Plenty of light, no overwatering..am i doing something wrong?

Looks decent to me. Maybe add a ml of rooter to your water try and establish a healthy root system to support the girls better?

Time to up-pot
Looking good

If they start leaning, just make a post out of a paperclip that goes around the stalk to prop it up. If you have a fan on them, the stems should be sturdy enough though

Add more soil, right to the top.

Ok cool, some ppl said since its Ocean Forest soil i can wait for 14-21 days.. anyways my next pot is a 5gal fabric pot, I don't have anything in-between. Is that alright or should i go buy 2gal bags tomorrow?

Also when i transplant, should i add more soil, like halfway up the stem or...

Straight to your final pot. Less transplants less stress less stress less stunting, personally I prefer to go right into the ground in my greenhouse from seed but for those without that option I’d always start them in the final pot and just cut 2 litre pop bottles in half to make a little humidity dome for the seedlings. The less disturbance you have to your plants for the first 3 weeks the better, and zero disturbance to the roots is gonna always be your best bet

Tomorrow will be day 14 since they sprouted in soil. Are you suggesting wait 1 more week then transplant? (21 days/3weeks total)
