go ahead and plant them into pots you r going to finish in. feed them at 1/4to 1/2 strength 2 weeks after the transplant. good luck
 
if not hydro.. then why not plant in jiffy pucks? rockwool is for hydro. You can plant in soil.... but how big are the rockwool pieces you have them in?
 
maybe 6"x6". they r big.

I'm using both the 4" variety (comes in a 6 pack) and the 6" 'Hugo' sold individually. How often do you water? I find these hold plenty of water for at least 3-4 days. I was watering every other day and my plants still look droopy.

I'm hooking up a 4x8 tray with rockwool slabs tomorrow. Three times a day for 15 min I will flood the tray and competely saturate the slabs.
