Tall and not dense batch (Broccoli Calabrese and Radish Red)

Hi all,

First time growing up and I had decided to grow some Broccoli (20g/1020 tray) and Radish (35g/1020 tray), does anyone knows why they are much tall than normal and look more distributed other than "crowded/dense"?

I had seed then on Saturday 9th, let them in blackout with weights for 3.5 days (until Wednesday morning), then turned the lights in the afternoon (they are currently at day 6 after seeding)

Using a 70% Coco Mix + 20% Perlite + 10% Vermiculite mixture.

They were already a bit tall after germination phase, and not very well distributed already. The lights are around 30 cm above tray level.
