Seedlings...bit early?

Today I was going to post about the fence progress but ad it is behind schedule and they didn't leave until after dark, I won't. It is supposed to be finished tomorrow so fingers crossed for tomorrow's update stating the fence is complete!
Instead I will tell you about my tomato seedlings. I bought a couple of cherry varieties and a beef size one called brandyvine. Sungold was one of the cherry sizes and the other name escapes me.
Most of them germinated. All but 2 I think. Great I thought.  However then I had super leggy seedlings!! Turns out maybe I didn't give them enough light. So after a quick Google I decided to replant them in slightly larger, deeper pots. Before and after pics below. There's also a couple of cauliflowers in there. They didn't germinate well at all. 2 out of 12 maybe and 1 of those 2 is questionable.
They are now sat on a south facing windowsill hoping to save them.
Nothing that we planted in the greenhouse has germinated. It is cold in there and it was a gamble but some people have managed successfully.
More to go in over the weekend and Monday as we've taken a day off together.
