Diff Age plants in 12/12 leafs pointing upwards???

Hello folks, growing 2 nirvana northern light girls under cfl in soil, in a grow box

normally i would try and have a crop of the same age plants however i am working to extend to a sea of green method so i build another grow box to use as a veg nursery, i had planted 3 seeds then around 2 and a half weeks later 2 more, i ended up with 2 females, but one 2 weeks older than the other so it went on to 12/12 2 weeks before....

now im into the 4th week of the oldest plants 12/12 cycle, ive noticed the younger plant is bushing out a lot more and not stretching as i thot it would, can anyone tell me if this situation will work out and if theres any trimming i could give the younger pland to create more space for light?

could you also tell me if the older plant of the 2 looks healthy and why both their leaves seem to point upwards, ive also noticed that the stem is on the thick side on this plant compaired to previous grows??

They are fine. THey most likely are just stretching for the light. If you slightly push down on the leaf stems it will straighten them out and also build the joint fatter where the buds r coming out. Doesnt look like you have anything to worry about. Just vigorous growth

they look sound to me,
you want a thick stem, the thicker the better

them look pretty damn good you need to worry if the leaves start dropping not perking up healthy like

oh and the one on the left looks sativaish the one on the right is more indica so its gonna be bushier. i might just be seeing things though

If plant leaves is like that, point to the sky that tell's they love your condition and everything is perfect !!! so they are like in heaven... so good is going to turn pot of gold!
