    Do they need support? my seedlings are 2-3 inch high and some are flopping over a bit.

    (PS I know I'm late to have seedlings!)

    Broccoli doesn't need support, it sounds like you have fairly young seedlings there - maybe they have dried out.

    They should pick up once they get rooted properly. They will bear sprouts next spring, when theres not much else to pick.

    They need lots of water. Soak the ground each night till there's pools around them, especially this weather. Any plant that's flopping is crying out for water.
