How Close
If that's 1.2 sq. ft, then no...it's not enough room. If it's 1.2 sq meters, then yes...it's enough. Plants needelbow room, air circulation and access to the light.
Leaves that rub back-n-forth against each other will cause what I call leaftip irritation. It's like using an eraser on a cheap piece of paper. Sooner or later it rub's through the other leaf. (dead spots) Not really a big deal, but not something to strive for either.
Depending on where you got your seeds, now-a-days breeders seem to be worying less about strain integrity than the all-mighty dollar. As a result, the plants are not "stabilized". This means you, as the consumer, will usually get a couple of different phenotypes. One phenotype will take after the mom, one phenotype will take after the dad, and a bunch of phenotypes will be varying combinations of both. Some quality breeding houses are more careful, and they do back-cross to stabilize the strain they're selling. (hopefully only one or two phenotypes) This is a Readers Digest version, but close enough to explain the differences in growth, size, shape, colors, flowering times and effects.

The little one might just be a stunted runt, struggling to keep-up. :jointsmile:Rusty Trichome Reviewed by Rusty Trichome on .
