Should I transplant?!

[Huggie bear]

they are currently planted in Peat cups and heading in to the third week since breaking the surface.
My Chimera grapefruit x blueberry.





do they look able to handle being dropped in to some FFoF soil becuase getting the correct amount of water is a serious pain the peat cups suck up the water and then the fans dry up the cups.

You should have transplanted already. They look a bit stunted. Go for it!

OK great! now about these peat pots I know I have been told give it a good watering and plant the entire thing but do you all think its a good idea?

To be honest, I would transplant out of the peat pot into another pot. I work at a greenhouse and we use these pots a lot to plant with.. but even though they say you can put them right in the ground we all know plants do much better if you completely transplant them. This will allow for the roots to fully grow out.

Roger that I will get those in a fresh pot today!
So excited about this grow I cant even tell you

OK well I put them in larger pots with some FFoF soil I hope they enjoy their new home.

Would avoid those peat cups unless you are planting them outside, those are designed to be bio degradable, not to mention acidic.

They look like they are possibly getting burned + pH issue from that peat pot you got....
Have you tested the run off?
DO those peat pots have holes in them?

they are at present out of the peat pots I carefully pealed the pots off like an orange once the soil was dry! They are adjusting to their new homes just fine.
I wont use those pots again thats for sure it made balancing soil moisture a complete choir!
they do seem to be growing much faster now but the first 2 original sets of leaves are pretty much trash.
the humidity is up to about 60 percent and the temp bounces between 70-77.

here you go stitch this is what the poor bottom leaves look like now. i have lost hope of those bouncing back but the new growth is doing well

I use Fox FArms Ocean Forest - but I mix 50-50 or 60/40 with pearlite - then set your water pH to about 6.0 Let the plants dry between waterings and they will show you their love.

I'm sure it's pretty hot for seedlings straight out of the bag - - Loews and Home Depot both carry pearlite I like the BIG bag! LOL

they seems to be happy now the yellowing I was having is almost gone and the new growth is taking off. Even my strawberry cough mutant seems to be correcting itself.
I lost some of the lower leafs but I am ok with that.
I will just sit back and wait for my first top and clone I know I will have problems to ask for solutions on that process
