well they've been in the dome for 9 days takeing the lid off to water 2-3 times a day, used rooting hormone ofc, the leaves are now starting to turn a bit yellow and curl inward from the sides (usualy ive seen them cur,l at the tips) Is it time to take off the lid for a few hours a day or somthing? Or maybe add some fert and water into the bottom of the tray? Heres a pic of the clones, and the mother (just to show off haha)

:bigjoint:
