    You may be better off sowing them in situ and then thinning them out. When I transplant my thinnings I don't have a very high success rate so for me I try not to move them, I don't think they like it. I would leave them for now, they may perk up if they get decent light. How dry is that compost?

      Looks like transplant shock. They may recover once they've adjusted.

        I think it's better to sow into small modules, a couple of seeds into each one, rather than have to keep potting them on.

          That's what I do, sow a couple of seeds in each module of a 6 cell tray every couple of weeks, keepmthe strongest plant and never pot on, just plant out as a small plug

          Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

          Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

            As well as the others have said I would say too much heat and not enough light. You will be better to start again as they will probably bolt
