I have planted some yellow squash and zucchini. They are growing great. But do I need to transfer them into something bigger until I can plant them outside?

They look great. However, they’ll definitely get leggy in those small cells, and might even become bound in their root development, but you might wait until their true leaves appear, the next set. It’s also a good idea to put them in a space with an oscillating fan so that they can be prepped for outdoor conditions.
