Seed Question!
my cucumbers have sprouted (indoors) and are 3" long or so. Is there any reason I shouldn't plant them now? I've always waited until the leaves grew out a bit.

I plant mine out when the second true leaf just starts to form. I've also waited until they had like 2-3 good sized true leaves. Haven't noticed a difference either way.

Definitely let them grow some more. I’d start hardening them off now, though. Also, cucumbers can be sensitive to root disturbance. So be very delicate with them when transplanting.
