I have sowed some Schizanthus seeds and transplanted them..I have never grown these before...they look very leggy to me..is this right?

they are leggy but put them into as much light as you can. When you say you have transplanted them do you mean from where they germinated?
generally it is better to wait for them to get 2 pairs of true leaves before transplanting. these are the seed leaves and feed the growing plant until new proper leaves form. you might be lucky and get away with it. :o)

Oh yes I have transplanted from germination..obvs too early :( I will give them more light and see what happens...so if they do form more leaves do I prick out? thanks :)

they look well spaced and if they survive you wont need to do much with them until they are a decent size 6+ leaves. then transplant again and by end of may they can be hardened off and planted out.
