I think they go right in the ground. You might buffer them a little since they have sprouted by putting some kind of potting mix around them and under them (maybe like they would have if rooted in a paper cup) and keep well watered to ease any stress while they take off

Once they have little roots stick them tail down in soil drench then add humidity! I have had a bunch of cucumbers and that works the best!!
