Seedlings in soil, need Very little water, once a week.
Less water allows dry soil.
Dome needs spray for moisture.
Avoid drowning roots and still keep humidity higher.
These were dry seed dropped into moist soils (experiment).

Dome sprayed for a week or longer before they popped.

Looking for differences between no up-planting (final soil drop only) and solo cup seedlings.
I used to plant my seeds straight in the Solo cups after seeing the seed crack and not necessarily the tail. The only difference it takes a little more time for the seed to pop the dirt and the Solo cups without the tail.
Now, as soon as I see ever so slightly a piece of the tail through the crack I put them in the Solo cups.
Yes as soon as they pop the dirt lighting is a necessity or they’ll stretch to find light and eventually bend over like a 10th street hooker on payday.
Plants look amazing bro! I haven’t had bubba Kush since the 9th grade! it was so beautiful and frosty & I was higher than a kite on the beach of Cancun! Def need to get my hands on some 
@Lostgirl , these are 3, going on 4 days, one is 4, going on 5 days.
When do I remove the domes?
Those two up front look leggy as hell 
Yep, those two are definitely stretching more than I would like. I have the lights on the propagation tray all the way on high, but I think the domes are reducing the amount of light they are getting.
Im NOT a experienced grower by any means but i do have quite a bit of experience with veggies.
You might want to wait for a second opinion from @Lostgirl but i feel like the domes should come off now.
And maybe lower your light? Idk.
Paging Dr @Lostgirl please pick up the red phone at your earliest convenience.
Yea, this propagation tray is really meant to, or tall enough for putting solo cups in. So when they have domes on, the top rests on top of the domes. With the dome off, I prop up the end of the top with the unused domes.
I finally have the 5x5 with the other small plants stabilized at 80f and 80%RH so I could throw them in there, but I would like to see better true leaves before I do that… I think…maybe?
You have more plants? How many plants total?
More than I should. LOL 
You can scroll up. 2-Future 1 photos from Kind Seed Co. 1-Bubba Kush photo from Barneys Farm. 2- Jelly Donutz photos from Humboldt Seed Co, 1-Fat Bastard photo from Kind Seed Co. 2-Cherry Cola Autos and 2-Strawberry Gorilla Autos from 420 Fastbuds, and now these Granite Haze F5 Autos from ILGM.
I popped these Granite Haze Autos because I didn’t thing the other autos were going to work out.
Holy hell thats alot of plants
I have the 3 but i dont have alot of faith in one of them. I may put some beans in some water to try and make up for it, we’ll see.
I’m going to have to order some seeds soon, i only have a habdful of the WW left, 1 Northern Lights (that’ll be for outdoors this spring), and a freebie fast buds gave me.
I aint been havjng much luck lately…my first grow went pretty well, this time around its been nothkng but drama.
Gotta keep trying grow bro. That’s what I’m doing. I think I’m getting a little better.
I has a lot better luck with this second round of Auto beans. I do like photos better, but I wanted to grow some Autos, so I’ll keep trying until I get a decent run.
These are my first try at Autos, The 2 Strawberry Gorillas, and 2 Cherry Colas. But heck, They are like 27 days old now. And they are still tiny. But they are really starting to go now. We’ll see what they look like when they start to flower.
Personally, under all circumstances you must maintain the proper RH and temperature during this early seedling stage. (Especially for autoflowers)
As soon as they pop the dirt I put a dome over them and it stays misted/moist. When they get slightly over an inch I remove the domes ONLY if the relative humidity and temperatures are adequately on point in your tent. If not keep them on.
For me personally growing autoflowers I like the first 15 days from the day they pop to be 75° to 80° and 75% to 80% relative humidity.
The girls that you list above in the picture are definitely ready for the domes to come off as long as you are in check with your environment.
However, they are screaming for the light and that’s not good they will continue to stretch and eventually fall over until you get the adequate lighting that they need. (Fix this ASAP)
If you’re in question go to the manufacturers chart of your lighting and simple utilize their recommendation for seedling stage both high and percentage for your particular light.
From the looks of your picture they’re stretching pretty good so you’re going to need delicately and I emphasize on the word delicately make a prop for them to stand up straight as you adjust the light to their liking.
You can try adding dirt if there’s room in the solo cup to help with the height that they’ve stretched. Worst case scenario the prop will get you to transplant day and be sure to bury the stem to its normal size.
Yup.
Dont ask, don’t tell is OK with me.
As LG said

@Lostgirl , Thank you for getting back to me. I have the tent with the small 27 day olds dialed in at 80F and 80%RH. I will check the par output on the 800w FE 8000 EVO light that is currently on 30%, 18/6 @ about 24 inches. I’m guessing around
200 umols PPFD should be about where I want to be?
So to be clear, What I can do is put these
Hey all. It’s been a very long time since I did a complete update. So here it is for those who haven’t forgotten about me.
First is my first born, (very first grow ever). 2 Future #1 Fem Photo from KSC, And 1 Bubba Kush Fem Photo from BF. Around 10 weeks into full flower. I think I am ready to pull the plug on these but would like some input.
What I learned early on was, as a beginner, guessing with nutrients was not going to work for me. As per @Lostgirl recommendation I went with Advanced Nutrients PH perfect line and have had ZERO nutrient problems since.
You definitely have a lot going on, looking good in there. Autos seem to foxtail more than photos, my last GDP auto grow did it. Backing down your lights to mimic fall fade and lighter nutes usually keep them at bay. Keep at it, for a first grow, your killin it!
Man all them plants look great 
Worthy goal for all of us.
@Lightbrightt2010 you can kind of see the irrigation feeding systems here.
