I germinated 2 seeds, a gelato auto and a hyperion f1, Germinated in paper towels at 25° then placed in soil once saw tap root, about 24 hrs after i placed in papertowel, they popped through soil in 12 but now seem slow and the hyperion f1s little leaf buds look strange

That might just be a genetic mutation, and with regard to the slow start, all genetics vary a bit for growth vigor (and the age of the seed and storage conditions can impact this as well). Two things I might check to be safe: (1) watering habits - I water thoroughly (to the point of a bit of run off, then let the media dry so the top layer is dry (I stick my finger in the soil a bit to feel how dry it is and if dry I water again) as cannabis tends to like a wet/dry cycle. (2) Light - I use the free photone app to measure light intensity (with a piece of printer paper over my camera to work as a diffuser as instructed in the app). I use their recommended guidelines for reference when I grow. Here's the photoperiod page: https://growlightmeter.com/lighting-requirements-of-cannabis-over-the-full-grow-cycle/ And here's the auto page: https://growlightmeter.com/autoflowering-cannabis-lighting/ (You can adjust light intensity either by dialing the grow light up or down or changing the distance of the light to the plant (I hang my light on a rope (actually using picture wire for one light) and adjust height up and down.) But unless you are in a rush, I would give it another week or two and see what happens. Just my opinion, obviously. But you're posted grow diary looks great, so I think you'll figure it out. Hope this helps and happy growing!

if that growth tip died, probably best in regar to time invested to replant like asnoriu mentioned. I'd wait and see if it grows out first, of course. A little yelow doesn't always mean the growth tip died. if you used paper towel method, why did it have to "pop through the soil?" don't bury the cotys if you do the paper towel method. The contact with the soil may have caused it.

Be patient, some plants start with the leaves tiny like that and in a few days look normal, so hopefully she just needs time and nothing went wrong. I have had a few seedlings look like this and normally they grow fine

Light burn, water droplet on in and light burn, ph issue or too potent medium you are growing in. I would pop new seed, had very similar looking and usually i nurse out all those freaks or weak girls, but my recent one, stayed in limbo and died ... growdiaries.com/diaries/257943-zamnesia-seeds-runtz-grow-journal-by-asnoriu

Liegt wahrscheinlich an deiner sehr feuchten Erde. Ich würde dir empfehlen die nächsten 7-10 Tage nicht mehr zu gießen. Wenn die Erde zu feucht ist können sich Wurzeln nicht richtig entwickeln und die Pflanzen verkümmern. Sie ist quasi dabei zu ertrinken. Vielleicht setzt du sie lieber gleich in ein etwas trockeneres Substrat. Viel Glück beim Grow.
