Sprouting Acorns Part 2

Hello,
The other day I asked about cold stratifying acorns in the fridge.  I think I'm going to go ahead and plant them in soil, and see if they germinate. (they've been in the fridge for about 2.5 months).

I have several full zipper bags of acorns--it would take hundreds of pots to try and sprout them.   I'm wondering if oak seedlings transplant ok.  If so, I would like to try and sprout them in plastic trays, and then only pot the ones that germinate and begin growing.  Does that sound like a reasonable thing to do?

plastic trays or better would probably be nursery pots (or similar somewhat deeper pots, since you want room for roots to grow). if you catch them in the spring when leaves are just starting to open and transplant them then, generally the roots are grown enough to be relatively robust but will also separate/untangle pretty easily. you can probably do a single-nut layer of acorns across the whole area of the pot, that then gets covered in around an inch of soil. it’s how i do pawpaws (which notoriously don’t like transplanting but i haven’t had trouble with), and other stratification-needing tree and shrub seeds. pretty easy, good results.
