Don't underestimate those plants . Don't love them to death either . When do you get the first frost ? Did you fertilize them when you transplanted ?
Gave them a soil mix with the soil in the ground a little fox farm ocean , MG organic compost, worm castings , a little mycorrhizae acid and a little peat moss, mixed in with the dark moist soil of the actual ground and watered with super thrive and epsom salt is all. First frost probably will be December.

I wouldn't do anything but watch them grow right now . They have lots of time to grow yet . Maybe some ferts down the road but that remains to be seen .

The tall one with the short internodes is kind of an odd duck imo for an outdoor plant but you never know . The one that broke looks like it has great potential .

That's really why I started this post because I thought It was odd and didn't know if I should tie it over or try other training techniques or just let It grow like I said they have had a weird life started inside and then LITERALLY just thrown into the wild and then started a new life outside again months later. While one snapped in half and i tried to mend it together and then decide to. Just break the top off and clone it and let the bottom die but the bottom kept growing good with hole in the brake and the main stalk has a split right through it. Still don't know if I should tape up the hole and split stalk yet

So basically the main advise is just leave them alone ? Theres Nothing is noticeably needed? Once again thanks for all the advise

That split looks like it healed itself pretty good , it doesn't look like it goes down into living tissue . I see your point now about tying down the oddball , it might work . Most times when I see spacing that tight they don't throw many branches though . In my experience anyway .

They look a hell of a lot better than they did when you got them . I'd leave them be , at least right now .

The split I'm talking about actually can't be seen in these pitcures the main stalk is hollow and its split in half,, I can see right through it lower then where it actually broke in half , is that fine or does that kind of wound need to be covered.? Like i said I thought there would be no way the plant would survive with all the trauma it had so I cut it in half to try to clone the top and I went back a week later and I found it as pictured. Alive.
