I'm in a 5x5 tent so just about half the space you're in. We can only grow 4 plants at a time here legally so it's plenty big enough for that. Critical Kush is a great strain. I'm a big fan of all the kush strains. I'm running Pre 98 Bubba Kush this run from clone and last run was og kush from seed. I also have Northern Lights#2 which is a good strain for me. I'll follow along with your journal to see how that kind of space can work out.

I don't put seeds in domes, only clones. I personally think domes make for weaker seedlings and can sometimes contribute to damp off but that's just my opinion. If the environment is warm enough, upper 70s to low 80s, I just make sure the pot is off the cold floor and let them get a slight breeze to help strengthen the stem. You need proper humidity in the grow area to be able to do that though, like 60% or preferably higher. I am a little tough on seedlings as I feel if they can't make it in the growing environment, they aren't strong enough to grow out.

I meed to get my humidity up from 45%ish thats why i thought about the dome, i have a humidifier in the big tent just been switched off through flower

I had to get a separate area setup for vegging and babies as I'm the same way. My flower room is around 45-50% in late flower and the veg plants like 60% plus.
