:) Hmmm, it seems like I'll never figure out how to post images on GW. :)

Hey!
First of all, how wet is this potting soil staying?
I ask because of the yellowish look to the leaves.

As for re-potting....
I re-pot my seedlings when I see roots emerging from the bottom of the container.
This lets me know that the seedling has sufficient root-mass to handle the transplant.
Also, I go from 2-inch containers to 4-inch containers. If you increase pot-size too much,
I think the plant "stalls" while it focuses energy colonizing the new volume of potting mix
with roots. However, most seedlings catch up within a month or so. With a freely-draining mix,
you could technically start your seeds in a 20-gallon container with no ill effects.

Hmmm interesting info. So you are actually saying it is better to repot? And to go in progression. This 16oz cup is just a little bit bigger than a 4 inch container.
OK if this is better then that's what I'll do. :) I thought they hated being moved but it sounds like it's OK.
Is there anything special that needs to be done during the move, like adding fertilizer to the new soil?

As far as wetness of the soil. I water this guy once every 2-3 days. The yellowness may just be my poor photographing skills or maybe the way the light hit the leaves. Otherwise you guys have cured my overwatering disease with the last thread. :)

Howdy!

Yes, I think it's better to up-pot gradually while the plant is still a seedling....
unless you have the room and resources to start the seeds in large, well-draining containers.

When you move your plants to larger pots, try to keep the soil and root-mass intact.
The less root-disturbance, the better.

I wait a few days to fertilize after re-potting.
The reason is that "soils low in initial fertility are conducive to root-growth."
Then I resume fertilizing with a liquid fertilizer.

I'm glad you've been cured of the overwatering bug... ;-)
