Stretching Seedlings

Every year I germinate seeds I seem to get this problem for the first week or so until I transplant the seedlings, deeper in bigger pots.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? They are sitting on a sunny windowsill in small pots, no humidity dome (I read too much humidity is bad). Greenhouse Trainwreck (grown it outdoor before with great final results). Tallest is about 10cm with total width across both leaves only 2cm :|

Thanks in advance, K

you need you lights closer, your plants are stretching looking for light. even a small flo should do the trick.
