Should I wait a while before I move these sweet 100 tomatoes to individual pots? How long do you think?

Id let them grow a little more before potting them on (but I've got fat fingers). Normally I move them on when they have 2 set of true leaves and then bury them up to the cotyledons.

Growing under lights will produce far more compact plants though, its difficult to see if youre already at that stage.

That's the stage at which I move them into bigger pots ;)

Move apple trees in pots to the allotment or just buy new?
