yes i have already got some plants growing, and i had some shoot straight up and real long, and they are bending over but are still very small, have my plants grown to fast, what can i do about this, and i have them in my home but im going to put them outside soon, should i put something in them while there in the house or not since in putting them outside, im talking about like fertilizer or something like that
From the way you've described it, it sounds as if your plants have stretched. This happens when there is insufficient light and the plants stretch up for it. You either need more/better light or move the light you have closer to the plants. (that's assuming you're using artificial light, are you?)
If the plants are bending/falling over then get some small garden cains and tie the plants to them for support.
What is the weather like where you live? If you want to put the plants outside and it's pretty cold then do it gradually so you don't shock them. Like put them outside for about an hour a day and gradually increase it. If it's warm then it should be OK to put them straight out.
Plants usually need fertilizer about 3 to 4 weeks after they sprout. Go real easy with fertilizer, like 1/4 the dose of what it says on the pack for the first time and slowly increase it until you get to full strength. This applies to chemical fertilizers like miracle-gro etc.. You could use organic feeds if you wish.

Bury the stem up to the bottom leafs. Get your light closer to the tops of the plants. How close depends on the light you are using. HID keep it close enough to the tops of the plants when you have your hand above the tops of the plants it is not to hot to hold your hand there for a few minutes. Fluorescents keep a few inches from the tops of the plants.
