3 to 4 inches deep? sounds a bit much, why so deep?

5 mm under the surface of the soil.

You put them 100 mm under the soil.

That is why they are not showing, you put them too far down.

You could go and dig around and see if you could find them and lift them a lot higher in the soil.

They are dead, you rotted them I bet. Go dig one up and see what it looks like. If you see no roots, squeese it and if it is a mushy zit like pulp, go buy new beans an try again.

:yeahthat:
I don't sprout seed outside, because the act of transferring it to the medium can damage it. I just place the seed on its side, about 5mm down. If the seed is good it will sprout in two to four days.

That would be about 1/4". If your soil is something like Miracle Gro or another pre-nuted soil, it may burn them. Peace and luck.

Read the resources on this board first--everything here has pretty much been tried and trued. I, personally, read the Marijuana Grower's Bible, but there are other great books out there. Ed Rosenthal seems to have a large following as does Jack Herer. Most importantly, get the basics down, get your set-up set up before you get too far afield. I had the wonderful oportunity to watch another member here go through birthing pains--nothing like experience for learning especially if it's someone else's.
Hang in there, you'll make it, and will be a better person for it when the smoke clears (pun intended).
