Generally I don't mess with seedlings, you're more likely to break them. If something is bent, as long as it has good lighting, it will fix itself.

Ok, thank you

Do you think I should use a grow light? (It’s been cloudy the past few days)

#### Wolfen 🐺 respondió el 2025-01-15

A grow lights always helpful for seeds. I live in WA is pretty mandatory if it's not already into late spring 🫤 when I start sowing

Fully straightened after a few weeks. And now it's dead straight. But have also had it with seeds bent or disoriented, and have had them right themselves
