well that humidity is low for a seedling, all you need is a clear plastic cup over the plant and soon you'll see mostuire build up and that'll indicate humidty rising. humidity domes are expensive, just go to walmart buy a clear or clear bluish plastic tub n run your seedlin in their till it matures a bit

they will be fine it simply affects your transporation rates (means they grow a bit slower)

PS you can cut the top off a water bottle and put it over em

I wouldn't recommend leaving it like that

Personally, I misted my seedlings twice a day to increase humidity and they came out of it pretty happy

Also, there are ways to increase humidity without a dome. I've used cups of water, wet towels/paper towels that I hang dry in the grow area, misting the planter-pot sides instead of the plant itself....all of these have worked for me

"grow a bit slower" :p lol if they are slow then i wonder what fast is. i'm wondering if they on steroids or something. no wonder its called a weed!! yea, i mean, from my readings i got an impression that less than 60% and they somehow die and stuff... but mine seem to be quite happy. As long as they keep this growth i'll be happy too :) thanx for the quick reply guys :) appreciated

spray the shit outta them!

hang a trashbag or small tarp over the top to create some kind of moisture trap if you can
