That should have read without water dripping when squeezed. If it drips it’s to wet.

i put seeds in a glass of water and hydrogen peroxide with a strength of 6-10% and leave seeds in there for 10 hrs give or take and than plant directly in cups, i’ve never waited to see a tap root while in the glass of water that’s generally not a good thing..
once planted put cups on seedling heating mat or on a thin rack on the mat, have the mat plugged into the timer to come on with lights on and go off with lights off..
it’s never failed for any seed i’ve paid for yet..

light looks to be close, especially right after a transplant?
raise it up 12 inches..
did you water the whole cup?
keep temps no higher than 78 if possible, 60-70% humidity for a week than humidity can lower slightly..

this stage can be slow, like up to 3-4 weeks sometimes and like not much is going on but there’s a lot going on, so just be patient and only water when needed, otherwise just makesure their environment is nice and safe.. DO NOT OVER MOTHER THEM
