    Looks big enough! If it’s going outside just be aware of your last frost date.

      Oo yay! Should I water it everyday? It’s been cold so I’ve been trying to ween off of watering too often 😂

      Once you get it outside, yes, water it everyday. Unless it’s rained of course or soil is still really wet.

    I grow my seed starts in paper pots ( like egg carton kinda ) then you can just put it directly in the dirt.

      It’s plenty big to transfer to the ground but wait till you know for sure it won’t freeze outside.

    I normally go with when they have good roots and when the weather is good. I do let them get about two inches tall first. Good luck 🍀
