FIRST GROW - PHOTOS AND ADVICE PLEASE.

Hi Everyone,

Hope everyone is well.

Just some advice on the below images.
The bigger ones have been a few or more weeks in those jiffy pots.

Some of my leaves seem a little droopy, is this normal ?
Or do they look fine ?

Some of the roots are quite long coming out from the bottom of the jiffy pots,
is this normal ? Should they be transplanted soon into their final home ?

These are all outdoor grows. They are seeing sun, it's quite hot here in Australia,
they seem to need a little more water than normal as the humidity is drying the soil,
nearly every day.

Any help would be much appreciated. I have read around,
there is always mixed advice and as a newbie it can be a little confusing.
Having a lot of fun watching these babies grow though.

im in australia aswell brisbane to be exac id transplant into a bigger pot, straight into final home if youd like burry the stem so the leaves are about a cm above the soil and cover the soil in some sort of small light color rocks leaving a circle around the stem for growth i use stuff from a local stream it helps with evaporation and if they are outdoor helps rain not disturb the soil too much

They'll be fine but U really need to get them under some good sunlight outside or a good growlight inside! Definitely stretching, looking for light!

get them repotted deffo no lights on roots. there very strechy have u thought of setting somewhere up for some supplemental lighting so u can try stop it a little if its continuing maybe so many hours supplemented at first just to get em established and put em outside in the afternoon or in morning then supplement the last few hours if u having temperature issues hope this helps
 
I'll update some images again soon moondance. Thank you.

They have been re-potted budulyk, the soil is 1cm below the current leaves.
They're outside in the sun and I will supplement the lighting if it gets too much for them,
and/or if they seem like they're stretching those little roots for the moon and beyond,
I'll supplement the sun for sure. Just see how this week pans out.

Can't thank you enough.
