My snapdragon seedlings are getting very leggy-are they a complete loss?Some are 5" tall already and no strength in the stems.Should I take them out from under the lights?I would like to start hardening them off, but they just keel over when I take them outside. Any suggestions?

RE: Snapdragons?

When you take them outside, do you keep them in the shade and out of the wind? Even an hour at a time will help to stiffen them up. A shady outside location will still be 10 times more light than they are getting under your lights. Al
