Unfortunately, your photo did not come through. I do suspect a lack of light from your description, though.

Many seedlings need to be started in full sun. If the seedlings don't have, quite, enough light they can grow leggy. This can be avoided by planting in a window that received full sun for most of the day, or by using a horticultural grade lamp, which is my preferred method.

Unfortunately, there is no way to fix the stretch, at this point. You can prevent it in the future. Just make sure that the seedlings receive enough light to remain as short as allowed by their genetics.
