The beginning is always exciting! Just a little tip to help out with the stretching of seedlings. To keep them short you should never start seeds right in a pot they will stretch out like yours are 90% of the time. But if you germinate and then put them in a started cube wait till the sun leaves open and 5 fingers of roots pop through the cube then transplant to a home. This will allow them to better establish their roots befor going in to their soil. Otherwise the hormones in the seed will cause your seedling to stretch( which is natural but not often desired ). And then you can also bury it to the height you want it to start at as well. Cuz anything below dirt will turn to root. Happy growing!
