Your medium is soaked and not enough light. It's hard to water small plants in large containers, not that the one you have is huge but still. My seedlings get about 40ml of nutrients early on, they don't need a lot. Not sure what vermicompost is but coco doesn't have nutrients and has to be fed from sprout.

My last auto I ran was a Seedsman Lemon Auto was a great plant.

I am going to give it a break from further watering. what do you reckon after how many days should i water them?

also is there any hope left? to revive it as the plant seems healthy to me

Water when it's dry. And if your medium doesn't have food you're going to have to feed it.

It may not end up the largest plant because it's stunted now, but no reason it won't be able to finish with proper care.

Yes, but this soil mix was directly bought via a link provided by a redditor grower. He vouches for this mix and i have seen his photos quite a grow he has
