Roots coming through... Help

I just have a general question about my roots and the RockWool cubes. The roots are coming through the bottom and we have the plants on a deep dish that we keep a small amount of water in for them to absorb. I was just wondering, since the roots are coming through the rockwool, should we move them into the Hydroton rocks? Its only been 7 days since they sprout fully. I will get a photo soon to better explain.

+Rep to anyone who helps.d5.jpg

Outdated Pic, but gives you an idea of how its set up now.

Waiting to put them in the ebb and flow...
 
I don't use the hydr. rocks, but had someone give me a couple one time they turned out awesome. So, hope im helpful...When I see roots I transplant them right away so they stay healthly and grow beautiful. I say yes. Peace & happy growing, let me know how they turn out.
 
My guess is that it is not your intention to veg and flower those plants in that propagator. So i would suggest, that if you are seeing roots, that you move on to phase two, and transition the plants for vegging. It is time to net pot and hydroton the plants and move them to their new home, or plant as is in soil. They look nice.... I'm envious, as my Tangerine Dream seeds have been soaking for 48 hours now and I'm still waiting to transplant to my cubes.
 
If you are getting roots out of the bottom of the rockwool, then the plants are healthy and growing good roots. That means it is time to move them to their next home so they can get on about the business of growing into good little girls!
