Too early to up pot?

First time growing from seed and I’m not sure when to up pot. All have gotten their first true set of leaves and are starting to form their second set. Almost all are between 1 or 2 inches. They still seem small but I’m worried they aren’t getting any nutrients from the peat cells they are in (next year I will be using a better soil mix). This is 3 weeks from the first few sprouting and a few have dropped their cotyledons.

    I don’t think it’s too early as long as they are about 2in tall. Some people say to let them get bigger, but I have been following the pepper guru on YouTube. He says to up pot as soon as they sprout, and his plants speak for themselves. I up potted my peppers as soon as they looked strong enough as far as having their first set of false leafs strong. I’m a beginner aswell so don’t take what I say as law, I’m still just learning aswell lol
