Seedling Problem

I first germinated then planted my seed. It then sprouted and grew into a seedling. The stem is straight but at the top of the stem is crooked at a 90 degree angle where the stem and the starting leaves meet. I was wondering do I just put the plant under the lights and then it will straighten out or do i place it in darkness to straighten it out? Anyone out there plz help ive been at this growing thing for a while. :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:

It should already be under the lights. They should go under when you put the seed in the soil or medium. The light will help straighten it if the stem has not been damaged.

I put my seedlings under light as soon as they break the surface (well to be honest - i put them under lights before they break the surface).

But to answer your question - my guess is the plant will straighten out over time - but you may want to train it to grow sidewise - lots more light can get to the whole length of the plant.
