Ok so I am a little concerned..I planted my seedlings (3 plants) 4 days ago. I have them on a 18/6 cycle under a 4foot 4 bulb t5 fluorescent light..54 watt bulbs. I accidentally knocked over the seedlings 3 days ago like a dickhead and ended up completely losing one seedling and replanting two of them. I germinated another seed and planted yesterday. The two plants I knocked over have not broken ground yet but it seems like the one I planted yesterday has already showed signs of sprouting while the other two haven't. Am I just being impatient or could it be possible I killed my seedlings when I knocked them over? Btw all 3 are the same white skunk strain. Oh and this is my first grow.

no ,you didn't kill them by knocking them over...what are your temps like ,some strains need higher temps than others to sprout.it's a little early to worry ,give it 5-7 days although 3-4 is normal for me.

about 6 months ago i got a couple ozs and it ended up having 10 seeds (that i found) in the bag.. did a grow with one of them 3 months ago took 3 days (without a humidity dome) to sprout, onto my 2nd grow now, i got the RH to 55% in the dome making it sprout under 24 hours. Be patient as said above, all depends on your growing enviornment and strain

Its much easier to pop the seeds in a moist paper towel stuck in a zip lock baggy stuck in a drawer over night and maybe a few more days. but usually they'll pop over night like that. if they don't you might not want them seeing as they might not be as strong as you'd like. This way you have a 100% confirmation that they have sprouted. Then just shove them into what you're going to grow them in and you're golden. its harder to knock a zip lock over. =)
