Perlite or No Perlite ?

Hi !
I'm making my third or fourth grow, but earlier i've used clones and now im making it from seed...

Now I'm wondering, I germinated all my seeds and I planted them yesterday in 1 - 2 liter tall pots in Good potting soil, altough the soil had no perlite...

Now im wondering as I was going to put perlite in, somehow I spaced on this in all the excitement of finally planting them,
So im wondering, will the roots grow/establish okey, or should i Carefully scoop out the seedlings and remove the dirt and remix with 30% perlite, (I will plant them outside in the ground in 2-3 weeks and then they Will have perlite... Im just wondering if you guys think its important enough to have perlite from start so that i should "replant" them in a new mix of soil and perlite, will the extra perlite be worth it in growth ?? and added shock for seedlings?

Thank You !
