It's possibly just a slow starter, have a tent full of those at the minute - I have just bumped the feed strength up. What strain is it you are growing?

Orka is sativa heavy, Haze X White Widow. Funnily enough my strain doing the exact same thing is kind of similar, Jack.H X White Widow. My guess is it's a much heavier feeder than it lets on, I'll be giving mine a few extra weeks to veg. Once you switch to flower I'm sure you'll be saying the opposite, 'Stop growing bitch!'

Took them long enough. I really did mess with them a lot though. Think next time I'll just let them go instead of topping n pruning. So, how long did you veg for? I just switched over a couple days ago. Think that Orka gonna be nice. Pretty plant and she's taken a lot of shit from me.

I think it ended up 7 weeks total... haven't really being going by dates, just size. I've grew this AppleJack strain before in the same system and it never quadrupled in flower so I'm pretty sure I could have done it 2 weeks earlier now. Hindsights a bitch. I must have had a few indica leaning pheno's last time, now I've got 3 sativas this time around and 1 indica. I'm just hoping the battering I've given it in flower doesn't affect it, normally I would prune in veg but this was just way overgrown at the bottom.

In a larger pot like that, the plant is going to want to build a substantial amount of roots before it really starts packing on the foliage.
It was probably a coincidence that you increased nutes and it started putting out at the same time.
