Man you're fast. Pics are edited in the OP now.Pics of seedlings.
You did good raising the lights and reducing amount!
Are the cups on floor of tent?
Most of them are out of the domes at this point. When they're under them though I do go pull the domes a couple times a day to let fresh air in. Should I be leaving them in the domes longer I've been pulling them once they open and have some true leaves coming out.Can we get some pictures? Could be too much light... I start seedlings under plain ol florescent shop lights. Are you letting fresh air in the dome periodically, they still need fresh air. Also, a week isn't really that long, are they photos or autos? Seedlings work on thier roots before they start making leaves in earnest.
OK I'll back off watering. That's been my biggest struggle is how to water, the tops just seem to get sooo dry & I get worried.Those wont need watered every couple days. Combination of overwatering and to much light imo was the reason
Yes the top dries way before the bottom. Lift a cup of almost dry soil, or weigh it... then a saturated cup. You don't water till the cup is back to being light. Roots need oxygen and you want babies to be searching for that lower water a bit so they make nice roots. Here's a good read on watering practices by Aquaman.OK I'll back off watering.

Yeah I am taking the domes off except the one with the bad coyledon, it bends over whenever I take it off & pops back up when I leave it on. I keep trying to harden it up, but it constantly wilts if not covered. I'll add a earlier picture of it for reference I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't make it.Too wet as mentioned. NO DOMES once they sprout.
Is that mycelium you have added on purpose or just from the happy frog?
They look pretty dark also which is usually excess N.
Don't over mother them.
Yeah I drilled holes in the bottom & cut triangles out of the bottom cornersMycelium is good... but that much on the top of the soil means it's consistently staying too wet... do the cups have drainage holes poked in them?
Lol bet me to itSeeds, NO DOMES.
Clones, DOMES UNTIL ROOTED.
seeds have roots off the start they do not need domes and as seen if you do use domes it will usually cause issues.
lights need to be absolutely minimal with clones as it drives transpirational demands.
with seeds they can handle more light but your still best off giving minimal lights until the first true leaves.

OK I'll get rid of the domes. I have a couple more germinating I'll try them domeless from the start. It's something I wondered about anyway, my tent stays at optimal humidity, so I wondered why I needed them, but most places I read said to use them so I figured it couldn't hurt.No take the plastic off them bro.you don’t need the domes for seedling.all of your problems can b avoided simply because of that.
Most of them I got from a local grow shop that came recommended to me by a couple local growers. The most recent came from Greenpoint.Where did you get the seeds?
