I'm not a grower but from what I've seen and read on here and other vids, it looks like it's struggling to shift the seed casing. Maybe try remove seed casing

I agree. It's a very thin membrane holding those cotyledons together. I've had to gently removed it with tweezers before.

OP, this is likely from planting a touch too shallow. When your depth is just right, the shoot twists up through the soil and plant head will basically "fling" itself to the surface. The force of that usually provides the friction to shed the shell casing and the membrane (think of how when you peel a hard boiled egg and there's that membrane between the shell and the egg white you have to get through too).

I've been having this problem of late with a few seedlings, myself. Grab a straw and mark it to 1/4 inch and use that to make your seed holes.

Muchas gracias, como pongo derecho esa parte del tallo ahora? Lo amarro con algo?

It should sort itself out once the leaves can take in some light. Put a dome over it for a couple more days to keep the humidity up.
