OK. I've just repotted to 8.5 oz Styrofoam cups....

and I have newbie questions.

I repotted yesterday and let the little fellows spend today in indirect light from a south bay window with the blinds closed thinking it would be less stressful. The blinds are those plastic kind that still cause a aggravating glare on the TV when closed to give you an idea of the light strength.

What now? I wasn't planning on these things growing this fast, so I hadn't fully thought out (or built) what I will need for 'stage two'. I had planned on moving them to a cold frame rigged with some supplemental night heat. Is this premature at this stage? Will the direct sun be too strong for seedlings that have been growing under a shop light for the last 2 weeks or should I add to my light set-up and continue them under the lights for a while?

Thanks,
DrR
