the not so well explained long answer, is that while they might all be the same strain, they might have different pehno's (i'm literally rejurgitating stuff i've vaguely read here :P) so they will grow differently.

short story, i grew tall a lot faster than my brother did at the same age.

Also might have to do with their proximity to the light. Try rotating them every couple days.

Some plants are just alot stronger than others also some germanate faster.There are 2 things that you can do you can super crop the plants that are a little bigger.All this means is just squeeze the plant has hard has possible inbetween two fingers and it will fold over then just put a tie wrap around it.The plant will grow back up the side of it's self thus giveing the other plant time to catch up.The other thing is just pince the top of the two big plants this will force two seperate stems to come of the top.This method can be a great yeilder if when it is time to put to flower in the 2nd week top the top of the 2 colas this then will inturn give you 4 main colas instead of the one.Both methods work and will slow the plants up just to give you that extra bit of time for the other too catch up.
