yesterday i put my seedlings under a fan and now they are laying down not touching the dirt but pretty close i packed some more dirt around the base and staked them up will they be ok? how can i get them to stand up completely on their own if i take the stakes out?

don't blow them away dude, a "gentle" alternating breeze is all they need right now, just enough to make them move a little.

Yeah...fluttering in the breeze, not blowing in the wind.

Wouldn't hurt to keep the stakes in place for a few days, unless you want to try LST.

Hugo has a point.
You might want to try LST.
