Is this normal sativa behavior?

This plant is at Day 71 from the 12/12 flip. While it showed hairs before the flip, it didn't really start to actually flower until several weeks after the flip. Now that it is 10 weeks in,the lower sites seem to have "normal" flowering sites. But the chutes going up seem to be flowering all the way up but it is barely there. Is this a more sativa leaning plant? Is there something wrong? I already harvested, dried, and cured one plant (different genetics) and I have a second plant that will be getting the chop in a week and a half or so (came from the same bag of bag seeds) Meanwhile this one that I have dubbed Slow Roller, is just taking her sweet and precious time.

Definetely not normal......there is a lot wrong going on here...deficiencies,mutation,burn.....i would just scrap that plant and start with better genetics, and dial in the environment,ph,and nutes...
 
Yeah its a dud. I had my 1st one a month ago. It went 10 weeks but never truly bud'd up. Looked sick. It hurt to trash it but it should've been trashed sooner when I saw it acting funny. That's usually the ones that herm up. it would've saved me months of resources.

Well, on the bright side, its sister is getting heavier and denser by the day. Looking forward to chopping that one. Should be 2-3 times the harvest of my first plant.
 
Maybe light leak or just a confused plant. Changing schedule or even a couple times some pins where pushed in on my timer accidentally so it would come on during there sleep a few hours. Got Lucky and think it only lasted a few days top. But some plants will mutate on there own. Have seen some herm just cus the light was to much when all the other plants loved it. It happens.

I have grown a decent amount of sativas. In no way is that normal and your plants are showing signs of senescence way too early in flower. I think there are light issues and nutrient issues tbh. If the sister grows well you can always monster crop it and get a new generation from it. Not sure what size pots you have but you may get better informed responses with more info.

That plant has been a bastard since shortly after the flip. Its in ffof in a 3 gallon fabric pot. With the info from this thread, im not gonna feel bad tossing it in the compost pile.

Personally I don't use less than at the very minimum 7 gallons for photo sativas. The past year I do at least 10 gals in soil. But then...I'm an organic soil guy.
