STRANGE SATIVA? oR SOME BIG PROBLEM?

Basic info of my plant:

Wild sativa from philippines
It came from seed of an outdoor plant and grown indoors at my cabinet.

Topped it on veg once and trained low to have even canopy and many tops.

24hr light during Veg stage for 10 weeks then switched gradually to 12/12.
During my first 12/12 flowering attempt, my cabinet has a light leak for 5 weeks. I then fixed it and made sure no leaks.
And the following 5 weeks, my plant just recovered from the light leak stress.
So now i restart the whole flowering phase and i again start week 1.

My question :
When will my plant stop growing leaves at the tops. When will i see a real cola forming at top that looks like a crown. When will i see those clusters of pistils forming at the top?

[ If my plant is still growing new leaves at the top? Does that mean im still on veg stage? ]

Your branches are offsetting so flowering is not far behind of you control the light as Dr.Pecker said. Sativas are SLOW flowering so hang in there.

That's a beautiful sativa you have there and it looks like you're doing a great job growing it, hopefully the flowers are as nice to smoke as it is to look at.

Anyway, tropical sativas can take awhile to start showing flowers, like up to 5 weeks for some equatorial strains at 12/12 lighting. If it's an equitorial variety then it will be use to 12/12 for vegging since that's how the daylight hours stay all year at the equator. I'd switch your lighting to 11/13 and you'll probably start seeing flowers sooner. I hope your in this for the long haul, that's a pretty extreme sativa you have , it'll probably take anywhere from 14-18 weeks to finish flowering; just guessing from the looks of it, but if you get to finish it properly you could get some incredibly good flowers. And just FYI, that plant will probably stretch like crazy for awhile (4-6 weeks-ish) once it starts flowering so hopefully you have some space for it. Good job again brah, your doing great it looks like.
