So it will be fine to stay in the peat pellet till then?
Yup, it can grow for a good while in there. Don't wait too long or it will start to stretch. Watering will become a multi-day issues as well. Also transplant the pellet into the new medium, don't try to take it out. You probably already knew that though.

Yessir and I’ve just been using a spray bottle to water. Would I need to cut the outter part off from the pellet

How do you like to start seeds?
Fold seeds in a paper napkin, wet it, place napkin in a sandwich baggie (condensation buildup will keep napkin wet) and place baggie on a seedling heat mat. I have upper 90s% success rate with this method. Seeds usually crack within a few days although I have had some take almost a week. Once taproot is 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch long, I drop seeds 1/2 inch deep into FFOF in Solo cup size flower pots. Seedlings usually poke up within a few days. Keep pots on heat matt unless ambient temperature is upper 60s or more. A few days after the first set of true leaves appear I use a 40W LED set about 4 - 5 inches over them to prevent stretching. https://www.amazon.com/Lights-Spectrum-Lightness-Indoor-Plants/dp/B07WFX899J/ref=asc_df_B07WFX899J/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=385179065226&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17725838150552394708&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9002043&hvtargid=pla-850648076106&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=83905924532&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=385179065226&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17725838150552394708&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9002043&hvtargid=pla-850648076106
