Dwc to soil transplant

Looking to move this now sprouted auto into a soild medium from this mini dwc bubbler.

Root is super long, others on the side starting to protrude.


Have never done a transplant like this, do I treat it like soil>soil or any nuances I should be following since it started in hydro?

Plan to go to a red solo cup, then a 3 gal pot.

Not a big deal just go ahead a put it your soil but when doing this I have always left it in the net cup so that no roots get damaged trying to pull them out.

If it'll slip out of the netpot without ripping the roots, pull it out, if not cut it off. I've seen plants in hydro get a knot from being restricted in the netpot before splitting it open. IDK if that'll happen in soil, but I cut my net pots even in hydro now to avoid it. Even though those plants turned out great, I always wondered if I would have had even better results if the netpot wasn't there.

Thanks, think I can pull it out at this point but good to know others left it.

Also do you give it the first water to the point of some run off to help blend the roots into the soil?
