your plant will double or triple in size when flowering,so bare that in mind.you should definatly put them in bigger pots.and what light are you using?
 
Your plant looks really stretched, you should cut the stem near the lower nodes to create more main stems which will fill it out and make it bushy if you keep vegging for another 3-4 weeks. What lights are you using btw? It looks like your using the wrong lights or the lights are too far from the plant.
 
i'd be to nervous to just cut the stem lol but i will deff be re planting them asap..im using a high intensity discharge light which is why the light is alittle further then usual. It gives off Alot of heat which caused burn marks to show up on several leaaves. i was forced to raise it but still see the same progress in the plant development. How do i determine when to start the budding process?
 
look into LST and topping, you also might want to lower your lights so your plants dont stretch as much and dont forget to maintain your humidity and temp
 
no just staying on top of them with the water. seems to be working lol. im not doing it all fancy like everybody else seems to be im just giving the plants the essential need(water,light and alil air circulation). Both plants are getting big so i will deff be re planting within the week. The plants are tall but arent lookin as full as others. A couple lower leaves fell off on both plants as well. I dont no what to do with these things lol
 
Honestly just top the stem near the bottom nodes it'll be fine, re-pot it, get the lights at the right distance, get some nutes (you can get some real cheap stuff which is still good like tomato nutrients from your local nursery) Once you've done all that it'll be like having a new plant, and it should bush out and grow tall again after 3-4 weeks in veg.
 
dont be nervous... be an innovator

you can use cut material to clone a new plant... saving you weeks of veg time!

worst thing that could happen is the cutting wont take.... awwww.

either way its a win win... cause youll run out of room when you start to flower, and where you cut the stem, 2 main colas will grow back... talk about dbl the bang for your buck ;)

ps- and, if you decide to make the cut, do it after you make the transplant... like a good week... let the plant get over the shock of transplanting first.
 
i went ahead and replanted both plants. i got the lighting alittle more under control and the plants seem to be doing fine. No more burn marks other then what was already there. i noticed a leaf started to curl up alittle, not sure why. I plan on letting them grow for mayb another month then start budding.
