Leave them alone before you kill them all. Be patient, anything could have affected the sprouting time. Soil temp, how deep you planted them, how wet the soil is. Sometimes they take a week or more to come through the soil.

All you can do is wait but if they already cracked before you put them in...that is a bad sign. Seeds can be dormant, but once the crack and germinate, there is no dormancy.

woke up this morning and nothing out of the other 4 ,i decided to pour out 1 to see whats up

You should not have done that. In cool temps the seeds can take up to 2 weeks to germinate. Also you should have placed them in the medium from the start instead of double handling them and disturbing the tap root.
