First of all, I live in a high altitude, relatively dry climate in the Canadian Rockies, as a result I have been unable to grow a seedling without a humidity dome. I have bought a humidifier to compensate, and have been maintaining the room at at least 50% humidity.
Now, I am trying to ease the plants (the largest in particular) out of the humidity dome, but when I take it off, the plants leaf tips point up, and the leaves curl and cup. Here's what I mean,
I took these immediately after taking off the saran wrap humidity dome:

This is 1 minute later, you can start to notice the leaf tips pointing and and curling:

This is only 4 minutes after taking off the cover. The leaves are extremely curled (especially the youngest in the middle) and the biggest are starting to look like bowls:

After seeing this happen, I freaked out and put on the dome after snapping a couple quick shots. Not even 5 minutes later they looked just as they did in the original couple pics.
I think it might be reacting to such a drastic change in humidity. I've been thinking of maybe poking a few holes in the dome everyday until condensation no longer forms on the saran wrap. What does everyone else think?
