First Auto Grow

During potting in soil. 3 of four sprouted from soil Within 2-3 days. One however received the dreaded “ helmet head “ . After looking through some forums i continued to spray the seedling every few hours for two days hoping it would losing the shell enough to sprout fully.It did not. In a last resort ( I may have over reacted to soon) around day 10 gently pulled off seedling . However the first leaves weren’t “matured” enough ( if that’s a proper term) however. It continued to grow. Should I have let it go a little longer and it would have fixed itself out ?? Check week 3 for update !! Comments are always welcome!
