So here’s the thing. I started this Asian pear tree from seed about two weeks ago. But I’m having major trouble getting it to stand up straight. I have attached pictures of it and I’ve tried turning it around that direction so that face is away from the sun. But all it does is lean back the other way. Any ideas or suggestions?

It needs all day sun is the main thing. Your plant is reaching for the sunlight because it is not getting even close to enough. You could get a bamboo skewer and tie the plant loosely to it to make it stay straight but as it grows taller it will still reach for the sun and grow crooked.
