Dunger is nutrients.

Growing in soil, worm castings, perlite, added nutrients yesterday and ground coffee... is it worth repotting now with fish bone and blood, realised that isn't in my soil?

They look pretty small and underdeveloped for three weeks, honestly. 18 hours of light is good, but not too bright. Leaves look a little faded. Could mean too much water or light? Good luck.

Others can weigh in, but they shouldn’t need too many nutes at this early stage. Careful there. Also depends what soil they are in now and how much nutrition is built in.

Perhaps they would do better outside the greenhouse? I don't know what temperatures you get in there or if it blocks sunlight in any meaningful way.

Be cautious of overwatering. Let the substrate dry out between waterings. It doesn't look like your soil is very airy, that might be why they're growing slower than expected. Don't worry though, plenty of growing season left!

Also coffee grounds no good to acidic if broken down in compost over time is ok. Really only transplant when you have some roots to be able to pop out and it not fall apart. Looks a little hot want temps at 80° for now.

The greenhouse doors and windows are open all day and actually the plants are only 10 days through the soil, so as you say plenty time.

It's 23 degrees today and around that for the next ten or so days, I'm really not sure how much direct sun to give them at this stage, they re actually only 10 days through the soil, I made a mistake saying 3 weeks lol
