Slow growing tomatoes 🍅

Hi everyone. Looking for some advice on my tomatoes.

Seeds sown on 8th March into individual cells, using Westland seed & cutting compost (my usual go to for starting seeds), and put into heated propagator.

Heat turned off once germination had occurred, located as close to a window as possible, but still got leggy.

Continued to look healthy but no development of true leaves, so potted on using a different compost (Westland seed compost with John Innes), which was approx a week ago.

They go into the greenhouse during the day and back into the house at night, as temps are still chilly overnight.

This is how they’re looking today. Am I just being impatient and I just need to let them do their thing? Or can anyone provide me with any hints and tips.

Previously grown tomatoes from seed but never had this issue.
