    Where abouts are they wilting, near the base, half way up, just the tops?

        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
