When to leave the hydration dome

With six fresh inches of snow on the ground

, it's planting day!!!

One thing I'm not sure about is when to pull the seedlings out of the heated hydration dome. The problem is that they don't all come up at the same time. I've got them segregated in 9-each cell packs, so once a few have sprouted and the rest are still underground, is it best to pull them out of the dome at that point, or can I leave the sprouts inside to keep growing taller, giving the late-bloomers more time to hatch?
