    They are looking good, starting the second set of leaves is good

    They look like seedlings. Are you planning to grow all of those if viable? I grew three plants and years later still have flake and powder I made. A little less potent but will still kick your ass with the spice.

  3. The spots look look fine to me. Some varieties gets spots on them when they’re seedlings, but once the plant matures you don’t really get it anymore.

    I would wait at least a couple more weeks before up potting. It will make the process MUCH easier because the roots are doing a better job holding the soil together and should just pop out like a plug. I think the internet stresses out about accidentally letting their seedlings get rootbound, but it takes at least 6-8 weeks in those little plugs before you run into real problems.

    Pepper plants are way more resilient than what a lot of people make it out to be. Just earlier this week I accidentally snapped off 2/3 of the root system in one of my 3 week old pepper seedlings because I tried transplanting early and the root structure wasn’t strong enough to pull the soil out with it. I went ahead and planted it anyway and It still is growing and looks perfectly fine after 5 days.
