3 day old easy ryder seedlings yet to break soil

I had 5 easy ryder seeds and successfully germed 4 in paper towels, once the taproot was about a quarter of an inch long i transplanted into 2 gallon pots of ocean forest soil, root up. I watered it well and let it sit for about 8 hours, then i immediately started an 18/6 light schedule under a 250watt hps.

My seeds have yet to break soil and it's been a good 3 days. I gave it a good watering yesterday but still nothing.

I really didn't give it that much water to begin with so I don't think it would have rotted. The soil got pretty dry for about 6 hours though, but i immediately watered it well. My tent is well ventilated. What are the chances that these seeds are wrecked? I thought Easy Ryder was pretty resilient since it can be grown outdoors as well. I planted them .5-1 inch deep.

Oh my water is ~6.4 PH. Is there any way I can check anything without wrecking the plant? Other logs just show sprouts above soil in 2 days or so and I'm worried.

Mine was taking its time so I took a credit card and brushed away a little of the soil that was covering up the seed. When I found the seed, I just sprinkled a little bit of soil over it again and misted the soil with a sprayer. It broke the surface within hours of doing that and it's been doing well ever since. I don't know if that was the right thing to do, but it worked.
