Tap root question

Hi I know it may seem a stupid question but a friend has some big buddha cheese seeds and was wondering how long the tap root has to be before he can plant it? My easy kush and big bang 2 were about 3-5cm so I dont know if they vary in different seeds
 
I planted mine as soon and I saw the taproot. Not sure if you should wait for some length though. Havent really heard of many people waiting.

as soon as you see it. go get some tweezers and pick it up by the shell.. never touch the root. Jam your finger into the soil to make a hole and drop it in tap root side down.

I have, some guy waits till they're over an inch long then plants them with the seed just above the surface, he swears it works.

i try to plant mine about 1/4" under the soil or less. 100% of the time my beans break dirt within a day...ive yet to lose one this way.......as for planting them correctly...it hold water, one of my beans musta shifted when i watered them, and it came out all sideways and curved, it stayed that way until harvest....i swear it hurt yield a lil bit cuz it was the smallest one in a uniform bunch
