Congrats with the progress! But, and I'm sorry to bring this up, but some of the bigger ones aren't looking to healthy. The leaves seem small, not very colorful, and appear to be starving for nutrients or more light perhaps? I'm no expert, but I have some of the same plants and about the same size and they look a bit different. I can post pics tomorrow for comparison, but I'm sure some of the experts here can suggest something, that is, if it's needed, maybe it's just me and if so I'm sorry.

Best of luck and I hope they all turn out great!!
 
Thanks for pointing that out for me. Not sure if or what I am doing wrong. I did remove their light whil I took the pic so
that might have an effect on their color.I give them fert every 2 weeks or so but very small amounts and I make sure I dont
overwater them. Maybe its the house temp or air or something like that.I shake/give them a breeze now and then as ppl have suggested so not sure whats wrong. thanks for pointing it out to me.

Some of my seedlings (smaller than yours) have a few curly leaves but that is from where the seed hat was stuck on them for so long.
 
Hmmmm maybe i am getting curl is (maybe because) the larger
plants are higher than the smaller ones and are above the light?? Also I cannot repot them into their final containers
yet because it is nowhere near warm enough to put them outside
and they are still in the clear cups so maybe move them into something larger until its time for their final containers???
any help would be great none of the small plants are curling so maybe thats the prob????

Ty Wrennie I am trying to do my best!! I am thinking it maybe a light issue as well after sunday It will be sunny for 3 days I will put the 1's with the curl in the window and see what happens everything else looks ok cept for those few leaves
i also transplanted the 3 bigger plants into larger containers
so we will see (crossing fingers)
 
Opps forgot to mention I gave the 3 plants with the "curl" a little food so we will see what tomorrow brings. All 3 are showing more new growth and new leaves are starting so
hopefully its just a minor issue
 
I had to come back and take a look at these pics of my plants and their leaf curl. wow they are alot better off now after I got the epsom salt and misted them. Not 100% improvement but 80% or so :)

Ta-da!
 
Here is a pic I just took of the 2 plants with the most curl.
While there is still some curl it is less severe now and they
look greener and more rigid(at least to me :lol:) so thanks for the epsom info and tidbits 1 or 2 more days of light misting
hopefully a full recovery

Tom, Thanks for clearing up the Epsom Salt thing with this thread...I think that I might have to try it on a couple of my plants that seem to be yellowish.
