I've got some Moneymakers, Marmande and Gardener's Delight. I started them from seed quite late and now they're up to 8 inches high.

My problem is that their stems are quite thin so I want to get them off their windowsill home and outside into a growhouse so that they get more sunshine hours. The windowsill they're on only really gets the sun in the late afternoon and I think this is why they've turned out a little spindly. I have an east/west facing house.

My question is can I repot them fairly deeply, ie up to the height of the original seed leaves? Will the covered stem put out more roots? Is this a good thing to do for spindly plants?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Yes you can plant them deep and the stem will grow roots so don't worry.
