Heya Refer =) , mate they look healthy enough, but your right they could do with more light. See on the top of ya buds , ya getting that long stem appear at the top?

That is classic stretching for light by the buds.

 

Some of the stringiness your experiencing will be stretch, but most will be from low lighting. Also make sure your giving them enough PK.

 

They Bagseed man, so hard to say what they'll do. Just hang in there, let em get all fat and sticky, and we'll see at the end.. hehe. Peace. Nibbler.

As nibbler said, being bag seed it's hard to know what will develop. It's unlikely that the extreme difference is due to anything you have done eg lighting, medium etc. It's most likely natural variation. On the bright side, you seem to have one plant that will produce some nice bud to smoke or vape and another that will make fine butter for edibles.

Thanks for the info guys

I have been adding the same amount of pk 13/14 to both plants now for the last couple of weeks

 

Im wondering is it worth the power to keep trying to flower it?

I no 400w hps isnt enough in my tent but its all i have

 

Seems like a totally different plant,it looks alot diff to any others ive seen from the same seeds

Did you say that plant is on its 8th week of flower? did I read right (w8)?

[refer24]

Sure is mate

Probably wouldnt waste much more time on it and just let the good one take all the light. Dry the crap one and make some of Lou's butter.

any chance of a closer look at one of the funky buds...

There are a few pure strains of sativa that never fill out in the way we think is normal, and the buds look nothing like buds, not saying you've got one though.

Any trichome development - is there a sticky-ness to the buds/ smaller leaves?
