even if this was a clone youd still have the same issue. size does matter. this is why commercial scenes are always going for more plant count over large frames unless limited by head, because large frames take longer to flower. taking any square foot X, you will always get the same yield faster with Y plants than Z plants where Y is greater than Z. this is a downstream impact / dependency of secondary metabolites and the very nature of them. there is only so much energy to do extra non-critical things. everything we care about with the plant is one of those extra things. small plants ftw, objectively and via fact. secondary metabolite local maximizing is trivial with small plants. small plants have less barriers for uptake, simple things like distance, intermittent sinking, osmotic pressure requirements, perturbability etc. not to mention that there is less time and touches for human error. they also grow faster, relative to square foot, and finish flowering quicker. you can see this in action. grow a huge frame of a plant you are familiar with. watch the last two weeks drag to three then four then youre at a ten week flower just because you had to flower one plant instead of filling the same place with 3 and being done weeks earlier

Excessive feeding can caused delayed flowering.................the plants in these pictures are certainly over fed! Every plant will be different for flowering, each seed is an unique organic being..............only clones will respond the same. Either way, you will have to be patient............what else can you do............??

What do you expect from hemp hybrids of genetic soup? There will be considerable variation between the genetically unstable plants. You are going to see average plants mixed with runts and slow pokes. Its not like you growing a predictable IBL. Garbage in, garbage out.
