Bizarre Beans

The bush beans seem to be growing freakishly tall.  It might be because they're trying to find full sunlight, so they're growing toward the window and won't branch out much until they find the amount of sunlight they want.  That could make for a really strange sight from the outside of our window in a few weeks.

In contrast, below is a picture of several bush bean plants.  You can see they are a lot shorter than the indoor ones and they branched out a lot.

Since we're going to get even less daylight until next spring, I might need to consider supplemental light.  Maybe I will use some high-watt fluorescent lights in the overhead light fixtures and keep them turned on for several hours per day.

Below is a picture of what I think are tomato plants.  I planted them several weeks ago, and they're just now sprouting.  Maybe it was too hot for them before, I don't know.
