The extremely strong sativa phenotype of this plan...

The extremely strong sativa phenotype of this plant leads me to believe that flowering should take much more than 12 weeks. Also the environmental conditions didn't help at all. Nitrogen toxicity is another thought... What do you guys think?

I would recommend you give your plants a flush. Check the runoff ph and ppms to see what you get. If you have ppms over 1600 (0.5 scale tds meter) flush her a bit more. If shes really low like under 800 ppm it could be your underfeeding. It's also possible you may have an abundance of one element blocking absoption of another. So either way a good flush will get you back on track. Too much calcium will block potassium absorption. Add your nutes to the last half gallon of flush water. Then let her dry out a bit more than usual before your next watering/feeding. I would recommend adding some type of pk booster to help bulk up those buds. GH has some good products or even Canna PK 13/14 would be a good choice. You will see the most bulking up in the last few weeks of bloom. Lastly adapt a strict wet then dry type watering cycle to maximize the roots ability to absorb nutrients and try to check your runoff ppms to know where you stand. You should see some results in a week or two of doing this. Hope this helps.

Nitrogen toxicity is one of the worst thing , I had one once and my plant took 1 more week to start flowering and the flowering was longer but the final product was good , when that issue is well managed the only consequence is a delayed harvest but you have to keep it low on the N and why not flushing your medium to "reset" the nutrients repetition. I am also noticing that you are an 1.4 ec but in coco you should be at 1.8 at the moment even 2.0 ec is not too much in coco/soiless when your feeding is well managed so you should maybe slowly increase the nutrients level after a little flush ( the flush will ... flush the nutrients away) . Your conditions are not bad , you have good temps , just a bit too much humidity but everythings seems ok

For sure it looks like a 12-13 weeks. I don’t see N toxicity. Also, soil takes a little longer I believe then hydro. Give her as long as she needs. Don’t rush.
