No offense, but that is where they should be after about two days... Your soil looks a little too wet and not airy enough. Maybe mix up some soil with 1/3 to a 1/2 perlite and keep it very fluffy. The biggest problem people have with growing cannabis at home (myself included) is giving the roots too much water and not enough oxygen. Don't worry about whether the roots are getting enough water, be concerned with whether they are getting enough air/oxygen. I could be wrong though, all of my experience has been with hydro.

set up sounds fine to me. do you have am idea on what strain it is, maybe that could affect growth rate.
Home depot soil is fine but I am imagining that it does not drain as fast as you might think. New growers are always eager to water I have been there. I use the same size pots as you and only water every 2-3 days when the soil is super dry (and im under HID's). I also use a soil mix that is probably much lighter and faster to drain then yours. So even if you don't think overwatering could be the problem right away it may end up being the culprit. Buy one of those little moisture meters at home depot they are like 5 bucks. Also, maybe add some vermiculite and perlite to your soil that could help with drainage and air for the roots. Finally- how close can you get your light to the plants? I have never used fluros or T5's for that matter so I have no concept as to what the light height should be.
