Hey everyone, long time reader first time grower here, im having several different problems with quite a few of my seedlings and cant seem to find a similar post anywhwre! All seeds germed fine and were put into jiffy pellets. They pretty much all broke soil 2 days ago but ive noticed several problems with each one! Some seem to be growing sideways,some seem to be dropping, one has a brown cotyledon leaf, another one had a cotyledon leaf torn off when the seed casing came off. And they just generally look terrible in my opinion. Anyone care ta throw in theire 2 cents?

What about the one thats stem is brown and the one thats missing a cotyledon leaf? Think theyll both be ok? Im thinking i had the jiffy pellets a little too wet to start. Theyre gonna be outdoor i jjst wantwd to give them a nice warm start inside since nights here in the northeast are still too cold

Heat mat would help dry out the peat, but I would skip the dome. You want to make sure that the taproots aren't sitting in water.

Leave them alone and stop turning them, eventually they will be straight.
You dont want them soaking wet either..

Those seedlings look fine just give them time.
Transfer them to final fucking pots now just stick the pellets into the soil or mix because its a lot easier maintaining the correct moisture level in a larger pot. Also you can buy water meters 'cheap" that you just stick in the soil to take all the guess work out of watering.
Good luck
