I did the wet pair towel technique I have seen many post as the best or more common method. But with my own idea I added a tad bit of loose soil amongst the seeds between the paper towel before wetting it. Thought it would help give the babies an addition "boof" to start with

Your not flowering in pictures. They are auto's so just wait, and let them do their thing. Longer the wait till they switch the more harvest. I would preform some last on them, and remove the mirrors.

First of all, the fastest autos will go into pre-flower is at about week 3 - that's the FASTEST... so I wouldn't worry on that score... I've got an auto going now that didn't go into flower until week 7 - different strains, different conditions, different care... but mostly genetics will affect this. The one thing I DO see that may have set her back a bit is that you transplanted her. Autoflowers need to be started in the pot they're going to finish in as they really don't like to be transplanted and can be severely stunted by that procedure if you damage the roots at all. I would just treat her very kindly from here on out and hope she will recover and give you flowers - but don't start to worry until she gets to about week 7 with no sign of flowers... if that happens, you may as well pitch her. I would raise your pH a little bit, too... 6.2 is the "sweet spot" ... 6.0 isn't bad (anything lower won't be good at all) but it's amazing how just a few points will improve the grow.... Good luck....

Surprisingly fast they were as if they couldn't wait to stretch their new arms and bathe in the lighting. I was shocked to come outside each day and see the extra almost half inch of growth a day. They showed no signs of issues except my novice questioning how much soil should cover the stem and the bottom node

I had some issues with my own bad choices and haven't had proper set up as I had initially planned at the beginning. Due to no dehumidifier yet and in Georgian weather my humidity was higher than ideal preference. As well Asa decent oscillating fan. So the stems started long and fast in growth. They were lanky and hung fast. I had to prep wooden long chop stick like utensils to help the babes have a shoulder to lean on. The repotting was needed faster than planned

The plants grew almost too fast and top heavy. Keeping them in soil and not tilting was difficult bc I want prepared for the velocity and speed of the children's growth. I had to rearrange the pots and repot them fully.
