What's happening to my seedlings?

[Lost_the_plot]

Newbie question! My seedlings are growing (yay!) but they seem really drawn, like stringy? What am I doin wrong? They're leafy stuff, planted a week ago, watered from he bottom, and live on a light, but not sunny, sill.... Do they look normal?

Sorry, worried i've wrecked a load of seed!

Sorry Lost the plot, but I can't really make enough definition out from the photo, do you have a close up?

I can just make the photo out - the app isn't uploading pics very well!!

They look very leggy and bent over searching for light. Perhaps to early to sow them and the room is too warm. You could try potting on up to the seed leaves but they really need cooler, lighter growing conditions.
What seeds are they?

Too warm and not enough light.

They're hon tsai tai, komatsuna & butterhead lettuce seedlings. Thanks for all your replies, will try to rectify the situation. Fingers crossed!

You may not have enough daylight yet, so perhaps wait until the clocks go forward
