They'll be up in no time.

I'd pull that dome off now. This is a critical stage where you dont want condensation or super high humidity in a dome. A retalively humid and warm environment is fine, 75-80F and around 60RH. I personally never use any sort of dome for seedlings, only for clones.
And dont give them any more water until the rooting plug looks like it's getting a little dry, it will turn a lighter brown and be somewhat obvious that its getting dry.
I've had a bag of Root Riot plugs sitting here for a year. Maybe I should give them a try.
Be very careful with RRs. If they are too close to the bubbling water/nutes, they will stay wet and cause root rot. I compensated for this by double netpotting, with ~ 1/2" of stones/marbles/hydroton in between

And the Third bean has popped !!! 100% Germination
Damn guys that is a first!... Thank You. I am now a Root Riot fan....
I don't mean to barge in....I've noticed you was still having a with seedlings starting....glad to see you changed from the rw..you was keeping to wet as before....you are also letting you tap root dry out under the the rw and plugs..as you have then setting flat on plastic or glass bowls... your water is little to high in your tanks.. pebbles should be damp,not floating...ppm and pH are off...pH 6.2- 6.8,for start,in your system...I didn't read what your water was...if to..125 ppm calmag.first week that's it...by my past experiences and what I'm seeing is you flood them out and burning up possible locking out....just a observation...
The last pic posted says most of it..temps way to low...pH.is way to low..and ppm.are 3 times over the legal limit..haha..your air temps are ok..rh..ok.. maybe little higher..I prefer at first...and soon as put seed in put it in your tank..not in a open container for air and lights and everything else to come in contact with your fragile new roots...you do them things I promise you will make it to water..cheers.seeds and time are money..You are not "barging in..." all opinions and viewpoints are welcome and appreciated.
Thanks for your help
p.s. Germination has always been an issue for me. Everyone I have gotten to the water; I have harvested. This root riot stuff seems to be the bomb.
