Savvy folks run fans on their young transplants,it was Cornell who first discovered why commercial farmers saw much better plants near those narrow aisles in green houses since the farmer would brush up again the plants nearest to the aisles,not wind related but actual thigomotropism (touch alone).

Thank you Carolyn for responding. This was my thoughts when I became aware of the difference in diameter size. I do have an oscillating fan in my seeding rack. I must say that the plants are doing extremely well.
As I have learned thru the years in the kitchen cooking- Sometimes its the technique not the recipe that makes a difference
