Why Is My Dill Plant Flimsy?

Question

I bought packeted dill seeds and grew them in a medium sized pot. I spray mist water everyday if the soil is dry. I live in a cold climate weather (about 3°C right now) so we only get a bit of sunlight. So the pot is by the window. They germinated and grew extremely thin and long and they can’t stand upright. Very flimsy. Is this normal?

Answer 1

Your pot should be deep enough for the plants to grow a tap root. Your plants may need some artificial light and a bit of fertilizer. The soil should be fairly warm, so perhaps growing by the window is a little too cold for them.
