This should be based on the size of the specific flower seedlings, if it is a small seedling of geranium, it is best to use a small pot, but the finished large plant type of geranium, it is best to change the slightly larger pot to raise, so that its root system grows smoothly, not necessarily with shallow pots, because its root system is still quite developed.
The soil should have a certain degree of air permeability and drainage, not too sticky, and try to be as fertile as possible. You can add perlite with a little peat soil, and add a part of the pastoral soil, so that the water retention is a little bit, and it will not be watered, as if it is not watered.

At the same time, raising geranium pots, there is also an important point, that is, in the autumn, winter and spring, must be full of sunshine, so that the seedlings can also flower as soon as possible, when the summer temperature is higher, to be placed in a cool and rainy and ventilated place to spend the summer.
If it is a geranium seedling propagated by cuttings, hit the top once or twice, even if there is a flower bud, try not to let it flower, because it will affect its growth, the plant type will not look good, so while pinching off the flower buds, while beating the top, prompting it to grow more long side buds, more branches, the plant type will be more plump and beautiful to flower more, so you have to be willing to hit the top, in order to have more beautiful flowers.
