I grew a corm in horticultural substrate. It literally is thriving. It recently just started growing its third leaf. When should I switch to soil or should I keep it in the substrate or possibly pon?

Whenever you feel like lol, I’ve put my one leaf corms in a coco coir mix and they’ve done fine

I moved my one leaf corms to a terrarium and they are super happy. Humidity is the biggest issue I’ve encountered.
