Need help with seedlings any advice?
...as your little ones look ok, but yeah, you wanna get 'em in their own pots ASAP.
Realize that some (or all) might die from transplant shock, but I would guess that as long as you're careful, most (or all) should make it. I wouldn't put them into too-large containers just yet, though--give em a chance to develop good root systems, and transplant 'em in stages.
Not sure if the FFOF soil has any perlite/vermiculite in it, if not, you should buy a bag or two to add to it. Perlite is cheap, and can really help fluff up the soil.
When they're little, I like using transparent plastic cups (that have a drainage hole added by me in the bottom) so that I can actually see the root development. I stack the cup with the plant into another cup of the same size that has foil tape or black duct tape on it, to shield the roots, but it still allows me to check the root development quickly and easily.
Good luck on the transplants!CovertCarpenter Reviewed by CovertCarpenter on . Need help with seedlings any advice? Hi all this is my 1st time growing.
