Update on glue gelato, please let me know if she's alright, first week after germination and already had to change her soil since she didn't like it there and also had to place her on a solo cup with more perlite to increase oxygen in case she was over water or too much light

Cutting the bottom of biodegradable pots ?
And when I will put them in the large 30l pots within 1 week, I am thinking of cutting the bottom of the biodegradable pots (because I have read that sometimes the roots have trouble getting through). Is it a good idea ?

Second seed had been growing wrong way up.
Turns out my second seed was growing upside down and the taproot had been growing towards the light for ~8 days. I've since transplanted and the seed doesn't seem to be growing much at all; although it has changed colour from being a yellowish hue to green. Is it likely a dud now

Leave humidity dome on seedlings?
Once the seedlings pop can I poke some more holes in the cups and leave them on for a while longer to maintain high humidity or will that put them at risk of rotting?

Hey Grower Ich stehe kurz vor meinem 3 Run und schaffe es bisher nicht das Spargeln zu umgehen. Ich habe eine 150 Watt LED. Beim ersten Mal hatte ich zum Keimen bzw. beim Sämlingsstatus 1 M Abstand und beim 2 Run 75 cm. Wie tief kann oder soll ich die Lampe setzen ? Dankeschön
