Seeds from the same mother are as different from one another as a human family. Genetics are variable generation to generation. The only way to get very uniform plants is to clone or, to a lesser degree, have true breeding strains.
Your plants look great. I hope to see more soon!

Just updating Ive just learned of the addives I shouldve been using weeks ago. Also got my hands on a chart to show me when to add what. Another addive I was recommended was called SUPER thrive and it seems to have given new life to the smaller plant cant wait to see.

What exactly did you add? I am also using the floranova and it seems to do fine. I am using it by itself. Also, what chart are you using? Looks great so far!

OK Im going into week 5 and big sis is going good, but little sis is super slow and small.
Here are updated pics.
Now a question for the experenced grower I know that if I cut the fan leaves the limbing will go faster. I plan on taking clones and was wondering if this is a good idea or not. Ive seen many growers who choose not to cut fan leaves unless there were problem with the leaf itself curious. Im leaving them be until I get some advice on this matter. I like the feed back thanks.

cutting the fan leaves will not help branching as much as topping or bending the plant over. try bending the top down, pointing towards the ground, and tie it there with some string. it will start branching within a couple days, and you won't lose the top of the plant.

Cool by doing this will it stil grow upwards. Also would I want to do this now or should I wait another month. I have never used this way of growing so I would like to be sure Im not going to hurt the plant. Ill wait for a reply before starting this thanks.

yes, the plant will continue growing upwards. the new branches will grow upwards, and the top that you bend down will gradually re-orient itself and begin growing up again. by removing the main top from the light source, the plant "thinks" it has been topped, and begins to branch.
i always like to induce this response without actually removing parts of the plant.
it does look a little small to try this now, i would wait at least a couple more weeks.

Cool Ill try that in a few weeks then thanks again.
Now does anyone have any ideas about the little sis. It stil refuses to go. Should I just start a new plant or give it more time. It did grow about 1cm and a hole 2small leaves in around 2weeks. But it stil appears super small in conparesion. Just wondering.

Damnit shit went all fucked up and both plants are dead. Two problems caught me with my pants down: Problem one on the 4th sometime my bulb blew dont know how long they where in the dark. Problem two Drippers quit working unsure how long. Ive tried all I know to save them but it is not looking good. The larger of the two seems to be trying to come back. But I feel it wont make it. My camera is dead so no pics, but the leaves turned white and drawed up like a fist. The only good news is the 5 clones are coming along well. Ill update when I know for sure. Peace!!!!

Damn guys didnt mean to tune u out I forgot no pics for now. But all 5 clones took root. I lost 2 due to a small mistake resulting in roots breaking and they did not recover.
As for the three that did they are going great. Hight is about 16 inches. width or round is about 24 inches
Im in the third week of flowering and all looks good.
I had to change houses due to things started looking wierd in that neighborhood.
Better safe than sorry right. Things seem to be on track and in 5 weeks I hope to harvest.
It looks like I may get more than I planned on out of these three.

Quick question for the more experenced growers. I'm 4 weeks from flushing the clones and still have all large fan leaves on the plants.
Should I cut these to allow light to reach though easier or leave them to the end of the grow? I have seen pics showing both. I'm just curious as to which is better. They are very bushy looks like alot cola type buds being the limbs passed the top by about 6 to 8 inches. Thanks for any help. Pics in a few days.

Cutting leaves always seems to stunt growth more then helping anything. What I always do is just tie down the big leaves to get them out of the way if absolutely necessary.
Cutting just a few big leaves shouldnt hurt it that bad, but if you go crazy hackin at them then you will stunt them. I never cut leaves off, unless in very low numbers.

Cool I'll try to tie back the leaves then. This will not be easy to do but without pics I don't know how to explain. These by far are the best bushs I've ever grown. So dense you can't see the top from the bottom or the other way around. Thanks for the info.
