Sameish setup as my last try (thalia)
I started her on paper towel and cotton and moved to the smaller green pot.
I plan to transplant after 1 week of veg
Is this okay? Tips? tricks?

To hinder overwatering, i"ll just feed one bottlecap full of water in the morning as long as it get dry in the evening and then water it again, gradually incease it.
The plant needs just water for the roots and there isn't much root in the beginning. You will get a hang of it after trying it a few times, just be sure to start slow and look at your plant.
Maybe get yourself familiar with VPD, that alone can increase the yield by like a third.
Other than that just try to stick to your first grow, that looked really nice, get in some lst or other training, top her early but only if she is super healthy
The smaller pot will help not to overwater, im sure you will manage the transplanting!
If any questions, were here for you

Your duration for green pot is too short, plant wont develop good root system so fast.
Both of your pots are underfilled. Top them up till verge.
I , personally, start seed straight to soil, i get best sprout rate that way with least seed manipulation...

It's better to let roots develop a bit instead of rushing it. When leaves are as wide as the pot, typically okay.
Having a bunch of extra substrate that stays wet with no roots isn't ideal. doesn't speed anything up.
much better to keep the size of the pot and the plant appropriate so that you can water normally. fully saturate (plus, 10% runoff if soilless context), wait for enough dryback, and repeat. deviating from this causes needless risks and pitas to water effectively.
You might want to find a better intermediary step. That pot looks like less than 1-gal and going into a 5gal? or 3 gal? Use a 2.5-3" seedling pot, 1gal, then your final 3 or 5 gallon.. i use 5-gallon pots and use 1gals, but might buy 2gals if i did it over, but might be a tad on too big for that first transplant.
You don't want it taking 7-10 days between irrigations. that's jsut a lot of stagnating water in the substrate growing weird shit. Or, you have to water improperly because the plant is too tiny for the pot. Easily avoided problems that should never occur.
