Peppers

Sprouted 1st of Feb and no true leaves after over a month


They started off well but it’s been a month and a half and only 1 has a small true leaf. They are light green in color. The peat container causes the soul to dry out every 2 days so I’ve been bottom watering.
Just started lightly fertilizing a couple weeks ago. I wondered if it was too much light but they seem leggy.
Wondering what I’m doing wrong.

    That soil looks very chunky. I’ve had poor luck with chunky soil. Stunted all of my nightshade plants(peppers/tomatoes/eggplants) that went in the chunk for half the year till I finally repotted in better stuff and they all blew up in a few weeks.

  2. I’m in a similar situation. It might be the ambient temperature where they are. I know in my house my seedlings are too cold, and am just accepting that until it warms up near me in another couple weeks they’re just gonna get a late start
