you could plant it right now, however i would wait until you’ve got another few inches. the more root, the better the chances of survival! plant in super chunky soil and only bury up to the node (lil plant joint) and i would also add a homemade moss pole asap. videos on tiktok are very helpful. good luck!!

Agreed, wait for some more roots to grow and then pot it.
