I have to go out of town for 2 1/2 days, I have 2 seeds that are just starting to show a radicle. My other plants I planted when the root was @ 1/2" long. I've never let one go past that point before planting. Whats the risk of letting it go until I get back?
 
There's plenty of risk and plenty of variables.. Why not just put em in the soil/medium now?
 
Ok, I can plant her, but I cant water her until i get back. I was afraid it would get too dry. They would be inside with only natural sunlight in 4" RootMakers. My 3 gal. fabric pots outdoors are fine for that long because I move them back under the east edge of a shade tarp and the afternoon heat is reduced.
Yall have me thinking I should just go ahead and plant them / dome them with bottle tops to help retain water / and call it good.
They will be in buffered coir and perlite with cool terra biochar. It does hold water well.
Thanks for the input. Much appreciated !
