My female blue cheese plants started out stronger than the rest of my seedlings, but now is basically falling over:

It started out straight as can be!! Should I attempt to fix this or let it go? Its about 3-4" under T5's with 16 other plants...please help this noob

Whenever that's happened to me, I just tied it to a little stake in an upright position. (I use wire for my stakes, thinner gage than coat hangers, more flexible. Just hoping to avoid or at least minimize damage to roots.)

They've always corrected and started growing vertical when I did this.Hope this helps.

bury it up to the sugar leaves and the stem will turn root for you. You have room in that container for more soil, fill it up. I have actually just laid the stem down and buried it, but you have room for more soil. When I start my seedlings I always leave room for more soil in the pot just for this. It happens all of the time
Good Luck

Thanks-will do this tomorrw during the watering

I do the same thing, col. And I let them stretch just so I CAN do this as I feel it is better to have more roots and plant them in a cylinderacally deep pot over a wide large pot, if you catch my drift.
