Peas round 2 grew so long in vermiculite! Will they survive transplanting?

Wow, this vermiculite method for starting the peas sans peat pots, sans indoor mix seems to be great!  Except when I wait too long to check on them and transplant them!  The roots of this vermiculite batch were SEVERAL inches long in many cases -- some up to maybe up to 4" -- or certainly 3".  So anyway, transplanted them today.  These are the ones on the northmost vertical structure, immediately south of the first batch that was next to the north wall.

Between the first and second batches just about the entire north vertical structure is now occupied.  So I'll start just a few more seeds in the coming days, to add a few more on another easternmost row, and to fill in some gaps.
