whens good to transplant?

hello all, I was wondering when I should move my fresh seedlings out of these pots.

This isnt exactly them, it was just chosen to represent size.... They just recently sprouted after germiniation and have the cotyledon attached. Im not planning on vegging them to long but I was just wondering when do you think the roots will exceed the case..

and also if the roots have no more space, obviously the plant cant grow any taller, will this be a problem for me? any advice would be great thx.

transplant when u see roots poking out of ur drainage holes at the bottom

Or, as I do it (because all my starts go into a little Dixie cup), when they start falling over from the wind.

Smokeh, when I was a little girl I was afraid of the Cookie Monster. I thought Oscar the Grouch was alright, but the Cookie Monster was not to be trusted!

i never used to see him when i was younger coz he was kinda an american thing.

but when i grew up and our cable got more channels i was like, omfg, theres a cookies monster that just gets his munch on all the time an go crazy over them, what a legend.

so funny

I was afraid of the cookie monster too....so my mother tells me. Today, my 8 year old can't watch him either. If you think about it...hes a scary dude.

He IS! But, why my affinity for Oscar the Grouch? Even when I was a kid I thought that was a little off.

Hey goodies..

In the future.. it is really simple to star your seedlings in rockwool cubs. and then as soo as they germinate.. you can stick them in their permanent home (container)

no further transplanting needed..

I think most kids feel sorry for Oscar The Grouch because he lives in a garbage can. No matter how bad things get - somebody is always worse off.
