I planted them in containers in the GH. In Nobember here in Central Texas we had plenty of sunny days but they were short. I started supplementing light a few weeks ago and I think they look healthier they just aren't thriving. Night temps in there are 54-59 usually. Daytime it gets into the 70s if it's sunny. We have had a fair number of cool cloudy days this past month so I've kept cfl lights on and it has boosted the temps at least to the low 60s. I reserve the heater for nights or the occasional really cold day

Do you think these are even worth transplanting or should I start over? It just seems like the stems are long and leggy.

PS I used miracle grow organic soil--brand new. Fertilized a couple times with an organic vegetable fertilizer. I do notice there are a lot of tiny flying knats in a lot of my plants. Jeepers I need to go to school on gardening-haha.
