Instead of poking through the bottom holes of cell trays or squeezing the plants out when you are ready to pot up seedlings, just use a painting palette knife to run around the edge of the plug and gently lift out the seedling. If you sow in vermiculite, the palette knife can gently lift up your seedlings.
You can also use the palette knife to push aside the potting mix and place the seedling in. That way you have a deep slit for the roots and can push the potting mix tight to the roots after placement.
