oh ok i understand now do u think i should keep the little one do you think it will be ok if i keep it or what? do you think she will catch up to her sister?
 
How old are they? 3inch sounds very stretched for a seedling. Give us more info about how you grow, in what you grow etc...

Don't give up on her just yet. My current grow, I had one white widow start out as a tiny lopsided mutant, first leaves took forever to come out - and she was small for weeks. But I kept giving her TLC, and she outgrew the rest of her sisters, before flowering even.

I agree, if the two plants are of the same strain, the bigger one is probobly just a stronger genotype (hopefully "she" isn't a "he".) Otherwise, different strains grow differently under different conditions (Nutrient uptake, water uptake, climate ect.) You have to watch your plant carefully and figure out how to best suit each individual plants needs.

Fill a cup with water (distilled or tap left to sit) take a peice of styrofoam with a diameter smaller than that of the cup, poke a hole big enough for the stem of your clone to fit through (but not too big where it falls through the hole) cut your clone and scrape all the way around the clone with a razor so some of the tissue under the surface is exposed (about an inch) all the way around, put it through the styrofoam so about an inch or so sticks out and just let the clone floaton top of the water. you should see roots start to appear within a week. MAKE SURE if using a clear cup that the roots are not exposed to any light. Its just best not to use a clear cup. Hope that helps

wait until the new tap root is a couple inches long and then carefully transplant into your container (do not directly touch the roots or expose them to light for an extended period. It should take anywhere from 1 week to 20+ days for the roots to show and then add about one more week for the roots to be mature enough for the transplant.
