How long in the humidome?

hey guys- we planted last Saturday using soil and our solo cups. First girl sprouted on Valentine's Day and the other two on the 15th. How long do they need to be kept under the humidome with just the cfl lighting? The first one that sprouted just started growing the second node (barely today) but it's also getting close to the top of the dome as well. I'm attaching pictures and am open to any help. First time we've germinated and not done clones!! Once it's time they will go under my 750w kind led.

If your humidity levels are up (70's) you should be okay to remove domes now. I water by the cap full when seedlings are still in solo cups to prevent over watering. I currently use CFL throughout grow and would suggest you move cfl's closer to plants. Looks like you got a little strech going on there. Looking good!
 
Humidity in my tent is only 65% right now. Should I look at increasing all up humidity? I know there are some things listed around just being lazy and looking for suggestions to maintain the humidity level.

You should be fine with 65% through veg. I got a new and improved exhaust fan this grow and while it helped lower temperatures greatly it has also reduced my humidity. I have a small humidifier running full blast but can't get my humidity to stay above 40. I am hoping once plant gets bigger and transpires more the humidity will rise. Plant hasn't shown any issues yet and others in dry climates say they grow in low humidity all the time, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
 
At 65% your humidity is just fine for a seedling. Once seedlings become young plants they can do lower humidity and by the flowering stage you want it to be around 50% if possible. I hope that helps!
 
Happens to me in my veg tent, as soon as the girls get some size the humidity starts to rise!
