They where doing fine under 5 liter bottles used as a mini greenhouse till I checked one day and they where all yellow and droopy. I posted on here and I was told take off the bottles so I did and there still the same. I transplanted one to a larger pot to see if this is the problem and they both seem to be still the same. Sorry for making another thread on the same issue but no one was replying to my last one so I figured ask again before they die haha
Someone please help me figure out what the problem is. Looks like my babies about to die

Taking the dome off was a correct thing to do. They look like the soil is being kept to wet, you need to let the soil dry out between watering.
I had been letting it dried out but now that the dome is off the rain can get to it so its not really my choise when nature desides to water it haha
being in Ireland I think the cool temps might play a part in it what you think?

I don't know about the temps affect, I grow indoors. It looks overwatered. It is in a small pot, why can't you move it out of the rain?
I have nowhere out of the rain to move it. I was thinking about suspending the lid of my propagation dome over it with a gap of a few inches between the bottom of it and the ground so there is still good airflow but will protect from the rain and rais temp through the clear plastic
I'll try find some way to shelter from the rain. What you think of my idea with the propigation dome lid? Im gonna check them later I'll get pics i think it might of rained a lot last night tho are they still able to be fixed okay or are they pretty much fucked?

Get some clear plastic sheeting like the kind that comes in rolls and make a small temporary greenhouse like structure to keep them covered. Something as simple as being draped over a couple of stakes would work. They need to be covered when it rains since they're so small and are drowning.
I actually have mad a small thing like that in my shed its a plastic basket I weaved coat hanger through the holes and made a u shape bent at back and weived them through on the other side and stuck a few poly pockets from folders together and threw it on top the smaller plant would fit in it but the one in the larger pot wouldn't I'll post a pic of it tonight
