Should these leaning seedlings be culled?
3 Attachment(s)
First time growing from seed and on any scale past a single pot. Making a lot of mistakes as I go, particularly not starting enough seeds. Starting to think I won't have enough plants so I'm reluctant to kill off laggards. Trying to start a second wave of seeds but the seeds don't emerge whether I start them in a tray or start in a paper towel and transfer to tray. Anyway, have a look at these little guys and let me know if I should be separating them from the herd if they seem diseased or non-viable. Worth noting, particularly in the third picture, that the seedling is bending away from the light. Thanks!

Some of the regular leaf and nearly all my potato leaf plants grow sideways early. Your plant looks okay to me, lots of vibrant new growth there.

The plants look fine, maybe start some low level fertilizer to start with. I wouldn't cull anything right now.

They all look great! Keep them all!

I think the white cup is reflecting and diffusing the light, and they are growing toward the direction where the light is the brightest. And I agree they look good.

I Turn mine daily. They are normal and just leaning toward the light,

Thank you all. First time tomato parent jitters I guess :))

No tape they are fine.
