Just below the leaves Pat, and keep em as close to the light as you can to prevent more stretching. Good luck with your grow.

I had some seedlings that were about 6 inches tall and stretching from bad light and one bent over, so I moved them into a 3 gallon home and buried the bent part of the stem so only the leaves were coming out of the ground and now the plant that was bent as a seedling is my most healthy adult.
