When to transplant clone from aeroponic

After nearly 3 weeks I am seeing roots start on my Purple Monkey balls/Fire OG clones but am unsure when to transplant to soil.

Right now there are a lot of what looks like spikes about 1/4 inch to 1/2 long running outward from the stem.

At what point will I want to transplant?

Thanks all, this is my first time cloning and using a CLONE King.

I had a slow batch recently with my Clone King. Don't know why, usually have clones in 10-14 days. I like the roots to be 2-4 inches long before I transplant. If they take 3 weeks then I would be nervous the stem might rot and maybe plant them when the roots are 1 1/2 inches long . If the leaves start yellowing before the roots get going I add a little calimagic to the water.

Mine took a bit longer, water temps were too low when I started.
This is at 18 days, I transplanted that day. They started showing roots at day 12.

Hope you well

Is there an ideal temp you have found that makes the roots shoot fast ?

I've noticed splitting the roots give it a day or to ahead of scraped/normal.

Do you have a set Ph ?

My cloner is a copy of the EZ Cloner and per their recommendations,

A safe range for the pH level is between 5.8 and 6.5. 8) For optimal results, the temperature of the water should remain between 70 and 85 degrees with the addition of EZ-CLONE® Clear Rez™ as a preventative measure.

Should there be multiple root trees before transplanting, or is one healthy 2-4" root sufficient for transplanting to soil. ✌☮

2-4" roots and maximum 14 days in the cloner, typically 10-12 days.

These little girls are 12 days in the cloner. They got planted that day:

I once waited 19 days to plant because I had to go on an unplanned business trip. A nightmare to untangle:
