Hi all,
This is my first time planting tomato seedlings which I got from the dollar store. I've already got 4 sprouting up in a week.
What are the next steps with these? Just keep watering them and wait for 2 real leaves to show before transplanting them? How big a pot should I transplant them to?

Yes, they definitely need to be bigger before you transplant them. Make sure that they have at least two sets of real leaves, but don’t let them go for a long time because then the roots will be all tangled together. If you have to carefully tease apart the roots, that’s OK because tomato plants are pretty resilient.
Do you have access to an outdoor space? If you’re starting indoors, you’ll need a growlight (otherwise they will continue to get leggy)
