First grow!! :D
So I just started growing this is my first time growing and I have a couple of plants just starting to get their second set of leaves if that makes sense. So one of my plants is extremely tall with only leaves on the top (is that bad??) the other one is short and was attacked by aphids so two of the leaves are eaten about half way down.
Also any tips will help thanks

Soap solution will get rid of aphids. If the plants arn't to big you can just squash them all by hand. Any infestation should be dealt with as soon as possible before it gets worse. Ladybugs eat aphids.
Sounds like the other one may have stretched due to low light levels but it's difficult to say for sure without pics.

I'm sure the sun thru the pane is fine but I would think you need much more than 5 hours per day. You'll have to move them outdoors or set up somerthing indoors. I wouldn't transplant until filling current pots and allowing the roots to take hold.

eventually, I moved my guys to open air. Now they're getting sun in full volume. not less than 10 horas of natural light and natural watering. That will be the greatest harvest ever. In a pair of weeks i'll post new pictures of them. All the best to them and let God save their soul.... .
