If you can spread them out, that should help. Take them outdoors when you can... As Carolyn said, her seedlings were just fine after planting out - minus the nasty leaves. Another thought, can you spread them out in a window where they will get real daylight? I set my lights up in a window and put the plants on the windowledge, and that is my all time best spot for tomatoes. A little natural light goes a long way...

15 C is great!! Will you really have to wait a whole month.
Not a lot of space for spreading them around since I have 2x3ft lights for 20+ plants At this point, I accept that only a certain % will survive long enough for transplant.

Last year it was only possible to transplant starting May 28....
