I only use heat pads in cold weather,and if my area is cold.

I use the 8 inch domes but i don't worry much about the seal being 100% air tight- I just put the dome on a fitted tray, theres still very small gaps.

I use gels and insert cuttings int rockwool that been soaked over night in 5.5 ph water to "cure"

There is usually a slight wilt for a few days but not drastic droop.

Good Luck.
