they r looking the way they should be so far. Not to sure about the 2 liter bottle idea. If u r going to transplant them sometime after the 2 liter bottle transplant, you might end up with a very long root system which could make it kinda difficult to transplant without alot of roots breaking off by weight alone. I would go with something shorter and wider. When you start feeding your plants, you want the plant to take up the nutrients as close to the stalk as possible = faster intake=faster growth. The further down the roots go, the further the fertalizer has to travel to get to the root, the soil is also "filtering" your fert solution. so if space is an issue and you dont want pots with big circumfrances, cut the bottle down to half. Hope this helps
 
The look good. i saw your other post about using the 2 litter bottle. That would be fine, but why not just spend a few bucks on plastic pots? They are dirt cheap and work much better.
 
cause im completly broke at the moment and dont get payed till friday and i can see the roots all ready geting tangled would it be okay to wait that long?
 
Yeah a few days should be fine. Just make sure you break apart the soil at the bottom before you transplant. I would look up techniques if you have never done it before.
 
massage the bottom of the cup b4 you transplant gently it losens things up to help with transplanting nothing special you just wanna minimize root breaking
 
Yup, sorry I logged off for a while. Island has it right. Just before you transplant and break off some soil from the bottom of the plant with your hands so you have the some dangling roots. This will help to loosen if the root mass if one has started. then just plant into the new pit with the new soil like you were gonna do.
