A couple years ago I put out 800 in jiffy pellets. The nice part is being able to haul them all out in one shot.

With Jiffy pellets, once they're sprouted, you should only water from the bottom. Let the water wick up from the bottom, then let them dry a bit before watering again.

Obviously, the plant size will be a function of the pot size. Big pot, big plant. As seedlings it's reflected in reverse. A seedling will attempt to focus on root development at the beginning to ensure its survival. Once that happens, it's a lot harder to kill. If it gets munched on by a rabbit, it just branches off.
I had no idea. I've been using Jiffy Pellets for years and always watered from the top LOL

Yeah yeah... Fill a tray and just add a half inch of water in the tray and Bob's your uncle
If you leave them in there for like 4 weeks, the roots will grow into the other plugs. I regularly keep them for 4 weeks, but I split them into another tray because I'm feeding by then.
I've been doing it so long I won't change. I up pot to pint pots within a few days of sprouting too.Yeah yeah... Fill a tray and just add a half inch of water in the tray and Bob's your uncle

In picture of the seed run,
It may look like nothing is happening, but there is.

Nice!
Are you feeding yet? If you're not, go into it slowly.
1/4 strength for the first week, then 1/2, then full by the 3rd.
Remember. Always follow the directions.
You only have two little ones so pull out your calculator and figure out a batch that you can use once. Make a new batch every second feeding, but a fresh batch is best with every feeding.
I only have 4 little ones in here now and I use this to measure.
If you go to a pharmacy, and ask at the prescription counter, they'll probably give you an handful for free. Tell them it's for cough syrup. lol
