Nanny23, I use size 2" x 3" zip lock from the craft dept. in Walmart. See my photo above. If you had problem handling them without breaking roots, then you waited too long to plant the seeds.

1] Too long to plant easily.
2] The right size of the roots to plant easy. Actually, I plant even before that. As long as I see a white nub on one side, which is the root breaking through the seed cover, I plant.

After I plant I use QUICK-START which is a hormone to help roots establish quickly. I use that on everything and when I plant outside in the garden/nursery.
