Okay I need everyone's recommendations. I bought $40 worth of different coleus varieties for my front porch which is almost all shade. It only gets some morning sun, but not in winter months.

I planted the coleus seeds on Feb 22nd. They came up in just a few days. It's been well over a month and they are still insanely tiny. Should I be worried? Should I put them in the back of my house? (South Facing) I understand coleus are generally slow growers, but this really concerns me. Maybe I need them in full sun to get their first sets of adult leaves? Please let me know. I included the pictures of the pots.
