When a seedling was transplanted i saw that its root led directly down in a straight line, they did not branch out, so does this mean that a grower really needs a narrow but tall pot instead of a "FAT" pot?

By "root," do you mean it only had ONE root growing straight down? If so, that was the "tap root" and its supposed to grow straight down. It also means that you've transplanted to way to soon.

Ahh, alright then yes, it still was the tap root, the seedling was only several days old when it was moved. Guess it makes sense that roots will branch out eventually to gather more nutes/water.
