Very nice , healthy looking seedlings. I always get just a little stretch with seedlings, but you can take care of that with some backfill up on the stem. Add inch of soil. Happy growing ---

I have a suggestion that’s more for the community and you as a whole rather then being grow advise. Instead of making a new post every few days make one post and use it constantly it will help you and others keep track of what is going on and be a much quicker way to reference past problems/solutions for you. For example make one post per a grow. Hopefully this don’t come across as rude! Just see a lot of new members who seem to make what seems like a new post once a day ( even multiple in a day ) 😂 and more often then not it’s the same question as before or it’s something that could have been posted in a previous post. These guys give the best advise and nothing worst then having to hunt it down! Other then that your plants look good to me! ---

I would go at least 2 days between watering in a circular pattern like you’re doing. I am careful to not overwater. ---

> [@Vtbudz](#): > > you can make or buy a clear plastic dome > [@Hairybadger231](#): > > some guys told me to take them out Since you are getting conflicting info on the how, I am only offering info. The reason for the dome is humidity. When our babies are in their first 2 weeks of growth, all of what they need is in the seed pod and at this stage, they have no roots so while they are developing that beginning root structure, they have to get what they need from the air and the light. My process is very specific and I do not deviate from it for these first 2 weeks. Regardless of what you do, I think after several germing attempts and hopefully successes, you will have this stage of growing dialed in. good luck and keep growing! ---
