As a first time grower should I transplant my plant from this little carton to a bigger bucket so there is room for the roots to grow

When she starts drinking really fast is a good indication

Hi Js_danks Wir growen unsere Pflanzen immer in einem 19 Liter Topf, ohne umzutopfen. Deine Pflanze sieht groß und stark genug aus um diese jetzt umzutopfen. Ich denke sie wird es gut vertragen. :-)

Hello mate, you should surly wait the development of the new sprouts then you could look how much the plant drink when you start to see that she dry out very fast the soil and the growth is stunted it's time to transplant. The experience will give to you the skills to have the best result because every plant is different and alive so you can't have a perfect guide. Good luck and happy journey!!

I like to use duration between irrigations as a guide. This is really no different thanpotting up a from-seed plant. When it's drinking fairly fast, you know the roots have colonized the current pot and ready for a larger size. The roots should be developed enough to hold the medium together with a little moisture. when you pot up, you want to go up in steps so that it doesn't sit for a long period of time sopping wet with minimal drinking. If it's taking more than 5-7 days after a pot up, you may want an intermediate size. Stagnant water soaked into a medium without roots is not much different that stagnant water sitting in a bucket. 5-7 days probably wouldn't cause a problem, but i wouldn't push too far beyond that.

The longer you leave it in a small container with no root room, the more you will delay its development.

Yes, the sooner it can grow bigger roots, the better it is.
