Sorry, just got the pic to load up.

i had them under grow lights in a seed starting tray. I thought I had enough room for them, but maybe I hadn't. Do you think snipping off the buds now would help build a healthier plant in the long run?

Early buds will often abort naturally. If they don't, yes you can remove them to keep the plant focused on foliage production.

I have some 4-inch Hungarian wax seedlings that are budding, as well, and I will remove the flowers as they appear.

Typically for me, as is going on with several of my seedling right now, the first buds appear whenever the plant branches out into a Y-shape. This often happens between 4" to 8" of height depending on the variety. Mine are also 9 weeks old. I often pinch off these early buds, but usually stop bothering around the time I have the plants outside for good.

Thanks for the replies! I wasn't sure what was going on, so I really appreciate you all taking the time to reply!

No problem! Your plants look like they're doing pretty good, I hope they stay on track.
