I have went through the stratification process, and now have the seeds sitting is little bit of water now about 20 days. I notice when looking very closely, they appear starting to emerge. My question is when do I pull each of the germinating seeds out and put in a pot? thank you

I'd give them to 30 days and all that have the white emerging I would put in small cells until you see their root coming out the bottom. Then put in tree sleeves or pots
like that open at the bottom. Are you planting for your use or to sell?

Plant the germinating seeds now. The longer you wait the greater the chance of damaging them and inviting pathogens. Trees in general, including spruces, don't like to be transplanted as young seedlings, especially in their first month of growth when they are most vulnerable to damping off diseases.

Even now, you need to be very gentle with the developing seeds. Don't push or press them into the soil. Place them, put soil on top, an water to settle the soil. If it were me, I would plant all the ones that look black in the pic now. The ones not yet cracked open will grow, if they are viable. Don't bother with the lighter brown seeds: those are not good seed.

I agree with Leftwood. I would have finished stratification and planted them in gallon pots to germinate. The seeds already showing roots are going to be hard to plant successfully.

Learn to grow them and eventually get the process down to sell.

j_kraut, wishing you the best. Ya might want to set up a tree bed so you can
plant them direct and do then all together. This is how my cousin does spruce,
Japanese Maples and fir trees. She sell for a living.
