Hi everyone. So after many weeks of lurking I've decided to bite the bullet and start a grow journal.
I came into about 80 seeds 5-6 years ago that were in a bottle left in an old rental. No clue what they are, etc. on July 8 I sowed 12 seeds directly into happy frog seedling starter. By July 15 I had 6 sprouts. On July 14 I repotted seedlings into 4" pots and placed them in my homemade grow cabinet (I have next to no budget for this) and placed them under a 2' 6 bulb T5 fluorescent grow light.
Due to size and time constraints I switched from 18/6 to 12/12 on August 15 after 36 hours of total darkness. By august 28 I had 3 males and three females. I ditched the males and one female with a plan to only keep one strong female.
I started with FF grow big and then switched over to Big bloom when flowering started.
So. Many questions. Although the color, and leaf shape look the same, these two gals have a different grow pattern. The one on the left has many dense small leaves growing at the stem which are covering the many buds that are there, underneath. I'm wondering if it is a different strain, or just that the buds are growing due to a lack of light. They do smell a little different from each other.
I have added a 60w cfl I had on hand but really don't have the funds for more light. I'm thing there's just not enough light to grow both these girls properly. Also the grow cabinet is 3' tall, 2 1/2' wide, and 2' deep. They're currently sitting on a removable shelf that when gone, will only add an additional 5 more inches in height.
If I had to lose one, which one should it be (sad, sad face)? Should I try to SCROG the remaining one? Is it too late? I am currently about 25 days into flower.
I've learned so much here and am loving this new hobby. These girls smell AMAZING! Any and all advice feedback is greatly and graciously appreciated.
I'm new so be gentle. : )

Sorry for the sideways images. Working on figuring it out. : )
