Help me with my auto seedlings Please!!!

OK here is a quick overview
first time growing autos but have grown b4. have 6 autos in 4ft by 4ft by 6 1/2ft grow tent. 1000w mh/hps goes to 50, 75, 100, super. have an ac and humidifier keeping tent at 75. using foxfarm soil.

So i germinated in paper towel no problem. Four days later planted right into 3gallon pots. Have light at 50 percent with mh in and about 2 1/2ft from light. Few days later all of them came up except one. then i started to get inpatient so i dug carefully down to see and I think I snapped the tiny stem (shit). I found the top and brought it to the top of soil, it still had seed shell over the head of the leaves. now its been a few more days and the steam looks healthy and is standing on its own but still has the shelling over it SEE PIC. want to know if it is lost or what i should do with it

Also
It has been about 2 1/2 weeks now since them came up out the soil, and they are still really small, growing really slow. And they are starting to not look the greatest, leaves droopy and looks like stunted growth. Autos have a time on there life so shouldn't they be growing like crazy?
my soil had a bunch on tiny little white/clear bugs in it took soil back to hydro store guy says it is not spidermites but is was soil mites and they were fine. I have a lot of them, but he said they were good and wouldn't harm the plant

SO WHAT DO I DO ABOUT THE SOIL MITES AND IS THE PLANT I MESSED WITH A GONER?
DO AUTOS GROW THIS SLOWLY OR IS SOMETHING GOING WRONG

PLEASE HELP GUYS THANKS

Here is some picture

if your really worried about the shell you can take a pair of tweezers and squeeze it the long way so it kind of opens while you squeeze it.
do it slowly and try and do it lightly and see if you hear a small cracking sound.
once the shell gets to a certain point of broken the seedling will push it off

i wouldn't worry about the soil mites the seedlings look fine man

just seems like they should be growing faster when it only has a 60 day life cycle

They are making roots bud no worries I mist the shell every few hours and the seedling works it off on its own

im just worried that cause i broke off the roots when i dug it up and thats why its still not out of shell and might be dead just don't know it yet

no, it's ok, its growing, mist it a couple times (lightly) a day, it will get soft and should pop open in a day or two

Click to expand...

rarely very very very rarely they have a 60 day life cycle
its just marketing
the finish times vary from plant to plant even from the same pack

they look good buddy but i wouldnt expect them to be finished in 8 weeks most take atleast 10

well thats good to know,thanks guys makes me feel a little better
