yes i changed to 12/12.

how long was the plant in 12/12 before you gave up on it? some sativas can take a long time to show pistils, the plants should initially stretch, this can be by upto over 200% in hight again in sativas mainly, but most plants will stretch a bit at least, then the pistils should start to show, but they wont if the plants are not in complete darkness for more than 12 hours, it is no good if you just go in for 10 minutes with the light on, and any bad light leakes may retard flowering. NKP on the nutes you mentioned are fine, failure to flower wont be due to the nutes, morelikely what ive said or a genetic peculiarity in which case you are fucked.

thanks for the reply. i dont know the strain, because i used some reg. seeds. i do have a lemon skunk that i'm veg'in right now. i just dont want to screw this one up. also i have had the plant in bloom for six weeks. i only veg. it for two weeks.
