All good advice, but one thing that hasn’t been mentioned is kill the heating mat after they germinate. Excessive heat can make the leggy. Up the intensity of your light and keep it as close to the plants as possible. (~1”).

I sowed all of my seeds on January 1st. So here’s what they look like after a month.




The ones in the gallon pots I’ve been bringing outside during the day. They outgrew the 4” peat pots. Won’t be long I’ll need to move more of them to gallon pots. Last year with my old single grow lamp, they weren’t even half this size.
