Ok, how do you know it's flowering?
How long is the light on for and do you have ANY light leaks coming in from the outside?
I ask because that plant is not flowering!

Like i say snaffu i use a '500w halogen light' and have done for several different types of strains it's 13 on 11 off no nutrients nor chemicals added just distilled water i take no notice of ph levels on watering haven't before and don't plan to (call me mediocre but it's worked several times before) i am a budget grower and have never came across this problem nor seen it before... I have no light leaks in the slightest and i kinda guessed it was not quite behind being 6 weeks but waaaay behind i have checked all budd sights and no sign of male sacks anywhere on the entire plant so must be female :/ and yes it is flowering i haven't focused on taking pictures of the bud sites my problem isn't with them it is with the leaves! My light has just turned of so will take pictures of bud sites tomorrow and upload... The picture uploaded now is from my last successful grow (nirvana) 118g crop undried 107g dried grown exactly the same the way as my current plant just a different strain... My main objective is to see which strains i can and cannot grow, quantity and potency doin it the way i am... Just never seen this kind of mutation before. If it helps I've had to pinch all top branches as the plant (S.A.G.E and sour) outgrown my shed at 7ft 3inch

That does appear to be flowering. Early, but flowering.
Whirling leaves say that it was in flower and is/was attempting to reveg.
Lower your light time to 10 on - 14 off. That can speed up the flowering some for you.

Okay thank you and would this be the reason for the mutation of the leaves or is this normal for this type of strain? So based on this info i could jot in my diary on this strain that 13on 11off theory to increase budd size 'would not' work? When would you advise switching my timer switch to 10 on 14 off? When my light switches off tonight or as soon as? And is this goin mg to effect my plant in anyway with it trying to reveg? Will it carry on budding from now?

The leaf thing as I look back at the first pics is nothing to worry about. Unless the leaves that are "bent" start a 2 tone look that resembles Mosaic virus (Cannabis can NOT get any MV). That would indicate Broad Mites. They are VERY small and can be taken care of with regular mite treatments/cures. No mottled look = no mites.

13-11 theory. Nope.
Switch at any time. It's a reduction, not an increase.
Effect will to be it's going to bloom/flower a bit faster and it can be flipped back to 12/12 if you like, once you feel it's flowering at a more normal rate.

Been reading up on this 'mosaic virus' and can safely say i haven't got this (as of yet) ... Phew lol worried me... I can add though, that every leaf on my princess has a bluey-purple colour hint to them not at all worried about this as she is in my shed and nights are still a little bitter so could be due to gettin a little cold maybe? All leaves vary from 2 to 8 mostly 3 leaves though... some i can only describe as looking like lizard feet i can upload any pics if needed though the bluey-purple colour isn't really visible on picture. Much appreciate the information

Quick little update... she's budding nice now :) changed the light to 12/12 looking like I'm going to get quite a bit off her considering the way she's being grown and the amount of problems I've had throughout her growing

To those who doubted i could grow the way i do to those who are skeptical and to the only guy who actually helped... Here she is in her final days looking to get a measley 2 ounce of her dry but for personal use given how it's grown too it's not to bad thanks again to dr who who kept my princess alive with his knowledge
