Well I am still learning, some challenges but enough success that overall I am pleased. My first batch of seedlings are in the process of being hardened off to move outdoors and grow a bit more in their pots before planting in ground. I have the 4 S Guaranitica var Purpurea, 1 S Penny's Smile, 5 S Summer Jewel Lavender, and the 3 S Envy- all still doing well. I started 4 new S Guaranitica var Violacea to see if the first ones were growing so weird because of s problem, and yes they were! Because the 4 new ones are growing exactly like the var Purpurea did- they all have their seed leaves and 3 of the 4 have ONE pair true leaves with the fourth starting its first pair true leaves. Pretty sure the others got too hot from lights being too close.
Pics are, in order: the Guaranitica var Purpurea and Penny's Smile all together, the Summer Jewel Lavender, and last is all the Envy. As soon as the Guaranitica var Violacea get a second pair of true leaves I plan to harden them off to go outdoors as there really won't be a need for them to have to stay indoors since frost danger should be past.
