Deformed seedlings

Thanks, Kim, I sometimes hesitate to ask questions you all probably have
heard and answered so many times before.  It's so strange how good it feels
to see those little seedlings growing.  I almost feel like a mommy again
;-).  More seriously though, I started (indoors) several cucumber seeds some
appear to be doing very well, nice and compact and already got their first
true leaves, but about 1/4 of them are leggy (almost twice as tall and much
thinner) and the top leaves look curled and deformed.  I can't see any sign
of disease that I can recognize.  Anyways, I'm going to destroy the deformed
ones and try again but but the seeds were all from the same packet, this
puzzles me??  Also any advice on which varieties of hot peppers grow well
for my zone (short, wet and sometimes cool season).   Dot
