Hi Jane, are those the forget me nots on the right? I wonder if they are getting much light as they look a bit leggy, meaning they should have more leaves 🍃 🍃🍃. Normally thats down to not enough light.

Thankyou @Denise16 I stupidly put them in a black polythene bag for the first 5 days and then thought better of it! Wonder if to cut them back or leave and see what happens x

I would leave them as they are, but now in natural light. I had similar happen with my sweet peas. Once I put them in light their almost naked stems soon got full of leaves🤗. I didn't cut them back at all.

With your cress, you can turn the basket around by 90 degrees every few weeks and they will look more upright. My garden gets sun from one side so I turn my pots regularly so the plants don't bend towards the sun.
