I am trying to grow broccoli from seed. When I moved the seedling to a new pot, it grew out this way. Initially the stalk was quite weak but it’s getting strong. I feel like it’s obviously not a good long term solution to have it hanging over the edge as it will start to get heavy. Do I re-pot and bury the hanging point where it turns?
