These 6 plants have been growing in 500ml(0.13 gallons) pots for 2 weeks from seed feeding GHE 3 parts

I need to transplant them into bigger pots and I am going to use fabric pots

Should I transplant them into the 5 liter(1.3gallons) pots and then finally the 10 liter(2.6 gallons) pots

Or should I just go straight for the 10 liter(2.6 gallons) pots, will water log be a problem going straight for the 10 liter pots

I personally, and have always heard, it is better to move up gradually. I dont think the difference between a 1 gal and 2 gal pot is going to make a massive difference though. If you were asking do I go from my <1 gal pot to a 5 or 10 gal pot, I would say that is the type of difference where you may or may not run into some issues.

I'd go straight to the 10 liter. That is coco you're growing isn't it? If you're growing in soil 10 liter is going to be quite small unless you flower those really small. With coco you can use smaller pots. Those plants are looking pretty good.

Yes I am growing in 50/50 coco and perlite. Ok then I guess I'll go straight for the 10 liter pot
