My plants are two weeks old since breaking soil. The current container are red beer pong cups. How long until you would want to move the plant to a bigger container?

In my opinion they're ready to transplant. I usually keep my clones in peat pots for 1 week - 2 weeks. then just straight into a 3-5 gallon pot. but any longer than 2-3 weeks and the roots will become stunted

ok thanks. I was going to wait longer

Is a 2 Gallon Container big enough for the mother plant?

I think I killed my plants. I did the transplant to 2 gallon containers, and did it horribly. The dirt broke apart tearing the roots off. I think I killed my babies .

I am confuse on how to water the plants now. Before I watered every 2-3 days with 1/2 cup. A lot of water would drain out. In the 2 gallon containers. Do I still continue with 1/2 cup or water until water drains out?
