This one has been 12/12 for 14 days now. If I use a magnifier, I can barely see a couple white female hairs at the top.Everything looks healthy otherwise, Im just stumped why she wont start filling in?
Strain: Blue Mystic
Soil: Happy Frog Perlite
Nutes: Organic bloom 1/2 strength, calmag, sweet raw, fulvex
LIght: LED 600 watts

Depending on the strain... budlets usually start anywhere from 10ish to 21ish days...

Every strain that i have done has taken at least 20 days to show budlets...

No light leaks, checked timer. Its on from 6 am to 6pm. Made sure to check visually at lights out. The plant looks to have flowering sites all over, but visible pistils are near nonexistant.

Explain budlets? Maybe she hasnt been in flower long enough to show more signs?

Sorry to hear that guys, i usually have pinkey nail sized buds in seven days but theres a lot of lights in the room. I dont swithch to bloom nutes right when i flip either. That plant has a whole bunch of growing to do in the next four weeks so i still run high nitrogen food to help that along.

Yes, it just like its stuck! Looks healthy, smells nice, but no budding. Vertical growth has ceased. So Id expect her to be focusing on her flowers. Maybe she will start by the weeks end, maybe day 21 of flower.

I vegged her 40 days. No preflowers then. So I put her in flower about 14 days now. I have just moved from a 50/50 mix of half grow half bloom, to bloom alone. I am doing the feed, feed again, plain water, repeat.

add an extra half hour to an hour darkness 13 dark 11 light once its started showing edge it back to 12-12 hope this helps ;-)

Quarter strength PK? Explain?
go on amazon and type in Cenna PK 13/14
Macronutrient fertilisers are generally labeled with an NPK analysis, based on the relative content of the chemical elements nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), andpotassium (K) that are commonly used in fertilizers. However, numbers used in this labeling scheme do not directly represent the source composition or absolute nutrient content of the fertilizer. The N value is the percentage of elemental nitrogen by weight in the fertilizer. The values for P and K represent the amount of P2O5and K2O that would be present if all the phosphorus and potassium in the fertilizer appeared in these forms.[3]

For example, the fertilizer potash is a naturally occurring mineral composed of nearly pure potassium chloride (KCl). As such, its composition is 1:1 potassium to chloride or 52% potassium and 48% chlorine by weight (owing to differences in molecular weight between the elements). Traditional analysis of 100 g of KCl would yield 60 g K2O. The percentage yield of K2O from the original 100 g of fertilizer is the number shown on the label. A potash fertilizer would thus be labeled 0-0-60, not 0-0-52.

Cenna PK 13/14 is for flowering its a booster

Ok. I am not buying anymore nutrients. So I will stick with what I have. Currently feeding Iguana Bloom 4-3-6, Fulvex, and Cal Mag together all at 1/2 strength.

I've read that if the plant hasn't reached sexual maturity yet, nothing is going to make it flower if it's not ready. I have three Purple Kush flowering right now. Two of them showed obvious pistils and alternating nodes before the 12/12 switch, and they started flowering within a few days. The other one showed nothing before the switch and it took a couple weeks to even show hairs. I can see now that it's definitely more of a sativa pheno, but it wasn't so obvious before. It's budding like crazy now, but it took some time. Genetics seem to play a huge role, and if the plant isn't ready, it's going to make you wait.

I am not being a drama queen. I just said Im not adding any PK to induce faster flowering like you suggested.
