Default When is the best stage to pot Drosera seedlings?

Hello

I recently planted some Drosera seeds and now have seedlings. How big do you recommend my Drosera to be before I pot them? I thought that if I leave them go too long, the ones that are very close together will smother each other and some will die. However, I thought that if I planted them out too soon, they would not have a good enough root system to survive. However, I would not try to disturb the roots and dig around them. However, the ones that grow very close together would have to have their roots disturbed to be separated. Currently the seedlings are about 4 millimeters wide and 3mm high. Some of them are only about 2 mm apart.

The Drosera that I am growing are listed below.
admirabilis
auriculata
Binata
capensis ‘Giant’
capillaris
chrysolepis (=pusilla)
dielsiana
indica ‘Purple flower’
natalensis
oblanceolata ‘Hong Kong’
spatulata ‘Fraser Is., QLD’ (Lovellae)
ventusa
Whittacki
Slackii
Peltata
Aliciae
Filiformis
Burmannii
Intermedia
Nidiformis
Dielsiana
Capensis Broad Leaf
Capensis Red form

Your help will be appreciated,
Regards Richard.
