I Took A Few Fig Cuttings 4 Weeks Ago And Divided Them In Two Batches. A Couple Went Directly Into Potting Mix And Rest I Covered

on one end with a moist paper towel and put them inside a ziplock bag. As of today, both the batches have sprouted buds and a few small leaves have formed but when I checked the root ends of cuttings in the bag, there were still no roots formed, none at all. T he leaves are coming in nicely but should I wait further or should I transplant them as they are?

I would wait until you see, at least, root nodules. Otherwise, there is risk of them being destroyed by microbes or insects if they are planted too early.
