Why are you trimming them? This isn't necessary.

Why are you trimming them?

And why aren't you eating them?

I was trimming them when they were under artificials and it never hurt, bit early to eat yet there literally tall seedlings

Maybe not, but I still don't understand the reasoning for trimming them?


A photo would really help. Without one, I'm just guessing: guessing that they've been grown indoors without the right kind or quantity of light, probably a bit too warm, and now they're too tall & floppy, instead of short (ish), & strong
