I have a couple of seedlings 2 weeks old. Looks like it's about time to top them. Will it hurt them to top before I transplant? Roots are not that developed yet.
Took picture right before I watered. Those 2 are especially thirsty, I spritz them a couple times a day.Mediums pretty dry
Duly noted will keep soil a little moister. I wasn't planning on transplanting them until I see some roots coming out of the bottom. I was mainly wondering if it was ok to top them close to transplant, say a week before?Ya it's hard to say (for me) how dry or wet it is under the first little bit of medium but I'm just saying letting the medium dry too much will hurt your roots when they're young and tender and that could be a good reason your roots aren't too big @ 2 weeks still so just to keep an eye on that is all. They looking overall good tho.
I'd only transplant that small if I seen the roots Bursting out of the bottom like an old ladies pubes comming out of her bathing suit
Otherwise I'd leave it another week or so until the roots have a hold on the medium. Otherwise loose medium can break apart in the move tearing young roots and causing you the dreaded 'transplant shock'. Healthy plant with roots will just keep on keeping on with some extra real estate.
Based on their size they should have plenty of roots. My 12 day old plants are already root bound and circling the bottom of my containers. Containers are just slightly smaller than solos.I have a couple of seedlings 2 weeks old. Looks like it's about time to top them. Will it hurt them to top before I transplant?
