A special trait with tomatoes is that the "hairs" on the stem actually are roots. If you have a leggy tomato plant, just plant it deeper or lay the stem sideways and then gently stake the top into a normal position. The buried stem roots itself quickly.

If they are tomatoes or other nightshade varieties, pepper, eggplant, etc. I’ve never worried if they get a little leggy. Just bury them up to the seed leaves, and they do fine. Anything below the seed leaves can turn into roots if they are buried. I’ve even had success doing this with other plant varieties and had no issue with them either. I’m sure there are some plants you need to worry about getting leggy, but I haven’t run across any yet in my 8 years of gardening.

An award-winning tomato grower in southern Oregon laid his long stems horizontally under the soil to promote more root growth. I planted close to the South Wall of the house and had 8' h. x 4ft dia. plants. Delicious. Thank you for the tips

I never knew the temp should be lowered once germinated! Also the feeding is important and most tutorials don't mention that. One tip about thinning - snip the extra with a small scissors rather than pulling out the extra one by the root - that way you don't disturb the root of the keeper :) Thanks! I just discovered you

@@FraserValleyRoseFarm With tomatoes, spindly seedlings are not a big problem. I bury the plants to the neck anyways when I plant them out. Tomatoes have tiny hairs on their stems that grow into roots. Edit: Ok, you knew that. But you can still bury them deeper than you did in the video. Peppers otoh are far more difficult. They need a lot of light and the temperature needs to be higher than with other vegetable seedlings. Most importantly: Once something has grown, you cannot push it back together.

Just watched a video from MIGARDENER where he lets the seedlings mature a bit more (2 sets of true leaves) and have more visible "hairs" on the stem. Then, he simply snips the weaker seedling at dirt level, and replants it WITHOUT ROOTS right up to the cotyledons and they end up growing roots and surviving! Amazing!

It's actually a good idea to plant seedlings as deep as possible so more roots will grow from where leaves are located. It will make your tomatoes strong. Grew up in the country and my family grew 80% of our food. If tomatoes are too tall, we would plant them a little bit slanted and they always grew very well. Also, you can make seedlings from new tomato shoots. Just plant them deep and water regularly and you will have more tomato plants.

You don't even have to plant the suckers to grow tomatoes from them, it is enough to stick them in a bucket of water with some nutrient and they will develop into autonomous tomato plants. Aside from the novelty, this is a pretty cheap and low-effort way to increase your yields (slightly), especially if you don't have a lot of space.

I'm glad you added in the last part about planting it deeper. I was taught to do this on every tomato plant. I usually do it three times per plant. Cut off the bottom branch, bury to almost the top of the plant in a pot. Transplant into the ground with the same process, cut bottom branch, bury to almost the top. A couple of weeks later, cut bottom branch once again and pull dirt up to the plant. I end up with a tomato bush that needs no cage or support that's covered with tomatoes......

As long as your seedlings are still nice and "bendy" you can lay the root plug horizontally right at the bottom of the pot and bend the stem in a U shape so that only the crown and leaves are sticking out of the soil. No need for tall pots! I've even potted rootplugs upside down as long as the stem does not break no problems!

Trick with such leggy tomatoe seedlings. Plant the long stem a little deeper. Down to the first leaves. We will get extra roots! The plant will be stronger.

VERY informative video - clearly explained, scientific terms, videography and photos within different spans of time to show beginning/middle/end - all make for an ideal video in my book. Greatly appreciated - THANK YOU!

This was super helpful for a new gardener! Thank you 😊

I start my seeds in a tray of moist paper towels. As the seeds grow and get leggy, I just gently add soil around them. I add a bit more soil as they continue growing strong stems.

Thanks for this video. I was facing this problem for my coriander seeds. Now I got the answer.
