Looking at the seedlings, the first two are about 6 cm tall. Do you think I should already transplant them into their pot and put them under a vegetative LED light even though they don't have the first two original leaves?

Wait until it has got its first two true leaves, the serrated ones, and you can see the next two already forming. Although transplanting now is possible, waiting until the plant is a little bigger will avoid any risks associated with handling the baby/new seedlings. Once they have the first true leaves they are more able to make use of the light. At this stage that it is at now, the plant is trying to establish a root system and get the first true leaves to function. Any interference at this time may "upset" the newly hatched seedling, all for the sake of not waiting the extra day or two before she is a fully functioning and self supporting being. Hope this helps,..... Organoman.

I recommend putting it under the LED once it develops the pointed leaves.. With the first two leaves, it's not necessary to put it under the light. I recommend transplanting into a 3-liter pot. When the roots reach the bottom of the pot, it's time to switch to one that's double the size.
