Hey.

Nice looking plants. It does seem really odd to not be showing more flowering this far in, but it could just be genetics, or something shocked them earlier into delayed maturing. *newbie shrug*

But looking at it, I do see some good solid signs of flowering. My plants would look like this after about 10-14 days of flowering usually.

That's my 2 cents :-)

Righttt...my first grow they were way past this point at this time already and the only things that are different are the genetics and the temps are a little higher so I’m not gettin it? I see the first signs but it just seems to be takin forever they are still growing taller so maybe they will take off this week after stretch is ALL the way done ? I hope

Seems long for the strains but i have had hybrids with phenos that took 4 weeks to show any blooming before. They ended up going like 12 weeks total and had very high yield. Big stringy plants like you got there.

Patience may be key.

I wouldnt expect much slowing down. Mine keep growing weeks after buds start to set. I do a lot of pinch and bending with long brancy plants.

You need to tie the branches down or hang a weight from them. They will always try to grow back up toward the light.

I use binder clips (the big black and siver paper clips) attached to the edge of my pots and soft garden tie wire. If they feel they will break do a little at a time but tie them down!

Yeah flowering is like a lifestyle change be patient if you grow from seed without cloning they take longer to get into flower
