Strange Looking Plant! short, stubby, curled

Hi, I'm growing 5 NL plants under 4 26w 6500k CFL's placed approx 2-3 inches from the plants. (1 over each, with the 5th plant sitting in the middle). They are all in the same soil, and have all been receiving the same amount of water (approx 150mill every 3 days, when dry). They are currently about 14days old (planted 14th Oct)

4 of the plants are growing fine (I think, pics attached) but the 5th is turning into a very strange little thing. It is definitely growing, and new growth is appearing but I would really like to know why it looks like this and if there's anything I can do to help/correct it. Is it going to make it or is it a lost cause?

Any info would be bgreatly received. Cheers

Can't say for certain, but I like the way that one looks . . . kinda special, unlike all these perfect seedlings runnin' 'round town. Frickin' show offs!
I'd treat it like exactly like the others and see what happens?

That one funny looking plant is OK. It's a genetics issue and you can't do anything about. Everytime I grow a new batch from seeds, I always get one or two that express some funny genes/mutations. It's normal. Just treat it like the others and it will be OK even if it doesn't yield as much as the others. On the plus side, I've found that the goofy, smaller plants that exhibit some funky mutations often contain higher THC content than the normal ones. Gotta love biology!

that plant is fine....mine did the exact same thing. the only thing that will happen is those leaves will not fix themselves. but since they are on the bottom they will eventually fall off anyways. best advice is that mine just kept growin and the leaves started looking better each set. dont worry about it...it's a genetic issue that will produce a much stronger plant in my opinion. It has to work through it so it makes it stronger. My plant is absolutley the goofiest looking thing i have grown so far.....but I can tell it's going to yeild good....you're fine man...just treat em like all the other ones

Cool cool. Got NO complaints about a stronger plant!! lol. Does anyone know why the leaves are yellowing slightly?? is this getics too? I recently transplanted them and I'm worried the new soil has too many nutes in it. Check my grow Journal link on my sig for all the details.

Cheers for your help.

could be genetics, i wouldn't be feeding it anything at that size especially if your soil already has nutes
