Provide Adequate Light

5
  1. Solution: Place seedlings under grow lights or in a very sunny, south-facing window.
  2. Explanation: Insufficient light is the primary cause of leggy seedlings. A sunny windowsill often isn't enough, especially on cloudy days or with short day lengths. Use fluorescent shop lights or LED grow lights positioned 2-4 inches above the seedlings for 14-16 hours per day.
  3. Notes: Crucial for strong, stocky growth. Lights must be kept close to the tops of the seedlings and raised as they grow.
