If it still hasn't germinated, then yes, this is bad, if it has germinated, but that it took 3 weeks, then carry on sir.

Not necessarily. Could simply be an old seed or some other reason. If it's growing it's growing, get waiting and see what it's like :)

Nah, at this stage there's little you can do but wait really. niether co2 or lights are beneficial to germinating seeds. You want darkness when they're germinating. It's once they pop their heads above ground that they need to be hit with light.
