How wierd is this?

These are 5 weeks old (all three) planted at the same time, living in the same space, why are their sizes SO different? The seeds are come by, but pretty sure they from the same bag. i wonder if the big ones are boys? they are already showing preflowers and i've read male grow a bit faster and flower sooner than girls? just looking for opinions, like maybe i stunted the little one even?

Not weird... Everything looks fine...
Seedlings will grow at different rates...
Bag seed= it is what it is...
Could be all males, or all females...
Small one could have more of the small male late blooming father that pollinated your bagseed bigger mother...
Unknown genetics .... Good Luck, it is what they is... Ha have fun with them...

Phenotypes my friend...even when you have one male and one female to make seeds with the offspring will vary. The variations will depend on how long you have bred the strain to isolate certain characteristics but that is a different topic...seeds from a bag could have been pollinated from more than one male and that will also make the variations greater. IMO, what you are seeing is different genetics from both sides of the family...that is, if the seeds are even from the same plant...

They could be different phenotypes and even when the same strain different organisms (plants) will not grow absolutely uniformly. This is why people frequently only takes clones from one plant of their crop, from the plant which is doing the "best" (has the most desirable characteristics), and then they grow out crops of those genetics via additional cloning. This gives them fairly uniform plants that grow the same, produce the same bud/ high, and the plants will finish at/on the same time/ rate.

It is totally normal for plants to grow in different ways and rates.

Yep I have also heard that males will grow a bit faster, but ya won't know till it spits out preflowers.
