Generally, yes, you can plant leggy seedlings deeper in the soil to help compensate for the extra-long stems! However, avoid the temptation to plant them deeper right away, when they're still very young and tender. Weak, thin, small stems may rot once they're buried in damp soil.
ress them into cultivated soil about 1 inch deep, spacing seeds some 6 inches apart. It's not a bad idea to plant several seeds in each location, then thin out the weaker shoots when the plants grow to 6 inches.
