this is going to sound daft but you didn't have a timer fuck up or a light leak or owt did you? it's odd that. given we know exo and dog yield well and reasonably well respectively. S1 looks lush. but the other should be bigger. under a 600 each? not knocking mind they do still look sweet as man.

No mate, no fuck ups.

For the first 3 weeks they were in the tent in the spare room with the rest under a 600w (they did fuck all during this time but stretch).
Weeks 3-6 they were in the loft under a 400w (it was a little cold lights off but not really worrying as lights off was during the day).
Weeks 6-9 (now) they've been under a 600w.
They'll stay under 600w until they've finished or when the Dog have done I might sling up the other 600w and have the 2 under 1200w till finished.

I've been thinking about it and I don't think it's cold anymore, I didn't really at the time but it was a factor that has to be considered.

Honestly I think it's a natural delay in the build up of auxin's that induce flowering.
Photo period plants flower in response to the build up of auxins (hormones), auxin production is stimulated by the dependent light cycle.
I think that as these plants haven't had an apical tip since the beginning and now they're huge and perfectly flat (underneath the canopy at branch level), the auxins have taken that long to build to a level that will induce flowering.

The same story with an autoflowering plant and you wouldn't be able to just hang on till the end regardless as the plant would keel over and die on you in proportion to physical age in light cycles.

Seems legit to me.




Time will tell how these turn out, interesting from now on though at 9 weeks.

why would lack of an apical tip cause a delay in the accumulation of hormones mate?

Because production is at it's most in the apical tip,hence the big fuck off main cola we get.

I'm thinking if the plant is big and flat then it would take longer for the said auxin to build to the same levels across the whole plant.
