Help don’t know if I should leave it alone or what

Should I leave this alone seams like the taproot is pushingand not able to go threw the rapid rooter

Your seedling is awfully stretched out and needs more light. The roots won't have any trouble emerging from a rapid rooter.

atu is correct your light is to far away ,once you roots show from the root cube then you can bury her so the leaves are not so far away from soil

Gently Remove the seed shell from the seedling its blocking the light thinking it's still underground forcing it to stretch
let me know how that goes

Leaving a seedling alone is almost always the right answer. When you move the Rapid Rooter to soil, you can bury it deeper, and it will begin growing roots higher up the stem (I've read. I've only done that a couple times and never did post mortem to see what happened.).

FWIW: I used Rapid Rooters for awhile. I like them. I buried them in soil (20oz seedling cup) so the plant could grow directly into soil. (No trays and domes.). But, my impression was that RRs are made for cloning. The pre-made hole seemed way too large/deep for a seed. I would jab/poke/carve/enlarge a hole in the bottom. I'd bury the RR upside down, and insert the seed into this new, snug hole. I would pluck off some small pieces of RR material and lay it on top of the seed if it was too open/exposed.

I never did try germinating with the seed in the pre-made hole. I can't compare. But, I never had a problem with my way.

I go right into the solo cups when they tap. I seem to have great luck this way. But I never used rapid rooters. Good luck with these girls.
