Don't plant them inside too soon. They need their tap root to go down into
the ground, not round and round your starting pot. I would give them a
couple of weeks, and then put them into the ground. I made that mistake on
watermelons and had to water them every other day.

Is there any advantage to starting Zucchini and Yellow squash inside and
transplanting?

I have had good luck growing squash hydroponicly. My big problem has been
getting good germination. I have been starting them in rock wool cubes.
