Slow seedling growth

Got an Auto that is 6 days old (from removing the seed off the cotyledons) it is roughly 1 1/2 inch tall and only has the first set of actual leaves developed , with maybe the next set just starting to show. It seems pretty slow and i'm not sure but maybe it's a little too cold? Temps are in the low 70F - even lower at night with lights on , soil temp was in the 50F-60F. How do you get the medium to stay warmer ? it's Coco. I get plants don't want to grow much if it's cold but if your indoors you're kinda stuck. I had a couple of LED panels running but as they are 18 inches away the heat isnt there so I switched so some CFL's that are up closer. Is that all about you can do?

sounds normal for 6 days. just make sure your not over watering as that will slow growth. can you post a pic?
