If roots were grown in tubes just put them in a small cold-water under shadow. Keep humidity high. Use sterile peat with modified ph to 6. Not much for each plant but enough to anchor the roots. They harden in about 6 weeks then gradually expose them to sun and other harsh conditions.
Plants are very sensitive to pests.

Place them in small 4" pots and keep them in mostly shade partial sun (under a tree canopy).  Every now and then pull them out for some full sun.  After a month or so you'll notice them start to harden off.

Thanks for getting back to me .... i was thinking of doing that putting them in 4" pots and inside a humidity dome with a heat mat under it and put them under fluorescent grow lights that i have already i wonder if that would be okay
