My nasturtiums were planted April 28 in organic compost soil that i bought from walmart. They germinated pretty well with little water lightly wetting the top since then. Now theyre 6" tall with 4-5 leaves each but theyre small leaves with leggy stems. Now theyre starting to lean and i think its because theres only about 4-5 inches of soil. They sit in the sun on the balcony from 12pm to sundown, i live on the west side of the building so its in the shade until noon. I know they dont like for their roots to be disturbed but will it help if i transfer the 6" leggy seedlings into a bigger pot with more soil? Or are they just not getting sunlight at the best time?
I should also mention i wet the top of the soil every two days.
