When do you transplant your seedlings

Lubbock, TX

Some of my seedlngs are almost an inch tall. I have read that you need to wait till the seedlings have two to three new true leaves.
The problem is they don't seem to have any leaves but the cotyledons(sp). Can you leave the seedlings in the seeding medium for along time as in several months or should I transplant them now? The seedlings can grow another inch before they will have to be transplanted.

I have tried taking pictures of them to send in but I am new to digital cameras and everything is blurry. My hands keep shaking. So far 17 have survived.

Well I have never hear about the tree true leave rule . I just transplant when they are about a inch or more long. Just so they are large enough to hold with out damaging them. I was told if you feed the a light feet each watering the growth time till blooming size with be only about 3 years. Giver or take a few years.
