I started some red hot poker & some Pride of Barbados seeds. They're up now but I need to know when to transplant them into there on pots. (I use "mini greenhouse" things to start them. You know the ones with the plastic lids on top)

Do they have true leaves yet? True leaves are the ones that appear after the initial cotyledon or 'seed leaves'

I usually wait until, they have a couple of sets of true leaves as the plants are easier to handle and not as delicate. (for any kind of plant) You can take those plastic tops off as soon as your plants start to germinate. they all don't have to be up. The lids are nice for initial humidity, but promote fungus if left on too long.
