I had just recently planted some seedlings after a week of germinating.
I had them in my room in styrofoam cups for about a week before transplanting them into bigger pots. They reached to be about 3 or 4 inches high and only showing two leaves! I know they hadn't gotten adequate sunlight because they were growing taller and taller and not growing in leaf size.


I now have them in bigger pots and sitting outside. The temperature is reaching in the 90's and 95's and i leave them in the shade for over half the day.

Is this the right thing to do for the plants right now? or should i keep them on a window sill inside for the time being?

I will post pics later of my progression of the plants.

i have found that keeping my plant outside that the wind strengthens the stem of it when it hasnt had enough light so i think if u put it outside but steaked them to stop it bending is helpfull making your plant stronger at the stem were it needs it most right now

hope thats helpful for you :D

they would grow but they wouldnt grow well only 2foot maybe the bigger the pot the more room the roots have to grow making your plant bigger and better
