dont worry about the perlite poring a little too fast maybe no biggie just leave it there it will be a good barrier. As far as the small one goes tap on the pot and get that plant out and take a look.

break up roots a little if they are circling .fill it in up to or close to the first set of leaves.

Get some better medium like coco. You have thrown together any old mix and bob's your uncle. When you put together a mix willy nilly anything can happen out of your control, eg ph out, too much food, too little food, slow release in pots and so on.

Bro they are not bad just growing a little slow is all. Those perlite are also fine. I use the same perlite, nice and chunky. Give it another two weeks and give us an update.

Wash your hands before you play in the dirt or touch roots.
