Pricking out toms

I understand the general rule for pricking out is to wait until the first set of true leaves appear.

I usually follow this for tomatoes  but I've read somewhere (twice now) that research has suggested the optimum stage for transplanting is six days after germination, at which time only the seed leaves show.

In reality I probably prick out anything when it suits me or when I have space for them, I'm not scientific,  more a bumbler Smile

What do you think?
