Once my seedlings of any plant get their 2nd to 3rd set of true leaves I transplant into a larger pot .. not too large though. When you transplant yours, make sure you break the peat pots vertically on the side about 8 times around so the roots can easily grow without having to punch through the peat pots.

I keep the soil on the wetter side of moist but NOT wet at first and start out with morning sun and afternoon shade. After a week or so and things are looking good, I increase the sun time until it's essentially all day. All hibiscus like full sun for a minimum of 7 - 8 hours and damp feet.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
