I did some leaf pulls about a month ago. How do I know when to move them to pots? They're all at about this stage, 1-2 tiny leaves.

I pot up plantlets when I see roots appear.
I bag or dome them after potting for the first month or so.

wait until the mother leaf is completely dry before putting them in a pot with a suitable mixture

Do I cover them with any soil at that point, or just lay them on top?

I will bag them as recommended.

in fact it depends on the species, because as you know there are several types of substrate suitable for each species, either acidic environments or for most calcic mixtures.
as soon as the seedlings no longer have their mother leaf (in fact these mother leaves are their nutrient reserve) replant them directly in their final substrate

for my part I never use the bag method
