too much time on the jiffy!!!put'em in soil as soon as posible!!!i grow this one b4 but they love the final pot at the very begining!!!Outdoor she will be ready sooner than indoor...GL
Finally, I transplanted both seedlings to their final 15 liter pot. Let's see how they like it.
I've also been a little worried that the jiffys might be strangling the roots for whatever reason, so I gently removed the jiffy mesh and took apart the pellet from the bottom up bit by bit, until i saw the roots... what do you know, both seedlings had way underdeveloped roots, specially the tiny one. I hope that now that both are in soil I'll see some positive changes.
I'll keep updating with their development.

Morning bro,
Sending you luck and good karma that they take well to the new home, thanks for the info on the peat pellets, I have never used them to germ in before and won't bother trying in future grows, I always germ in paper towels and then plant straight into big pots using sterilized tweezers to handle the seed from the towel to the pots. My first few grows I have had slow seedling development, this time I have been giving some Bio Buzz Root Juice and it seems to have improved root development and growth compared to the past at this stage.
Just stay positive all the time they are looking healthy and try not over think anything unless the plants leaves are telling you they are not happy, am sure you will be fine and most importantly just enjoy your grow.

Thanks spanglish.
So far so good, the seedlings have stayed green. I assume they'll take a couple of days to get used to the transplanting and once they do they'll finally start growing a healthy root system.
I'll post new pictures when there's any positive change (hopefully soon)

Ok, small update.
Just to be on the safe side I had to take the jiffy pellets apart and carefully transplanted both seedlings.
Two days later, both seemed to have survived and take to the transplant rather well. This is how they look:
You can see that in two days this seedling has fully opened a second pair of serrated leaves
This one had an almost non existant root system, but even so it's second pair of true leaves is growing.
