I have some bachelor buttons that grew w/ long hypocotyl, relatively speaking, 1.5-2" that fell over. They have really nice dense clumps of true leaves 3-4" tall, 5-9 leaves growing almost like a rosette or crown (think parsley) rather than the leaves on stems, things like my peppers or snapdragons I'm terrified that they're just holding onto their roots by this little thread, and so afraid I'll snap them.
When I do remove them (very carefully) from their starter cells to the garden how deep should I bury them? Does the hypocotyl go underground? Or will I rot the base of the rosette/crown/epicotyl if it gets too close? The seedlings are doing really well so I don't want to make a mess of them. I tried getting a picture of the plants themselves, but they're too big and too close in their trays to see what I'm talking about, so I borrowed this pic:
