My first grow

K two days ago my cousin gave me 15 seeds, i started germinating them that night, and this morning 3 of them were sprouted, so I took a 2 liter pop bottle cut it in half and filled it full of dirt, i put 2 seeds in it and then got a normal small pop bottle cut that in half and put 1 seed in it. This is only temporary until it gets nice enough outside for me to transplant them and they wont die, but I just checked and 3 more have sprouted.

My first question is can i leave the sprouted seeds in my paper towel for a day or 2? my second question is if i should give the sprouted seeds i planted water with miracle grow today or just wait until they get bigger and my third question is if i should even water them at all today.

Ps it was raining outside when i got the soil so it was pretty wet and still kinda feels wet but that was a few hours ago and i have it beside my window. My 1st pic is my 2 litre 2nd is other pop bottle 3rd is what the seeds looked like when i put them in if you look closely theres 1 little root. Thanks for any help

you can probably leave them in the towel as long as it is moist, but why not just throw them into soil?

drop $5 on some decent soil - even if it is MG organic - and put away the nutes until they're older and they're ready for transplant.

Thoroughly wet the soil before you put the seedlings in and it should be good for a few days at a time. you don't want to drown them.

Make sure there are holes for adequate drainage in the bottom of your "pots". pick up some cheapie 4" pots for like 10 cents apiece at the store and you won't regret it.
