This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Light doesn't only go one way. If you can see the light inside through the exhaust then the light from the room you have lights on during the light's off period is getting in as well.

I actually check lights from the exhaust vent, and there is a layer of light padding at the door. Let me show how my box is built
Door
The black line is light insulation
Air Intake fan at the bottom
Exhaust fan at the top.
I also took a video from my phone, Which I am not able to upload here for some reason. And when I turned off the lights, it went Pitch black in there.

Is it remotely possible that this one is taking its own sweet time to flower, mimicking its Sativa lineage?

Your light never turns off on its own from overheating does it? It is cramped up against the ceiling.
Vicamation

I agree it looks cramped, but it is a fraction of an inch away from being so. Because I lack space, I carefully set it in there. And it has never overheated, as the in built fan keeps it cool.

I changed lighting to 11/13 now, so it will get 13 hours darkness starting tomorrow.

Anyways, take that plant out, shave all the dead leaves off, cut everything above your scrog net, and thin it out a lot. Your bud sites will be fine.. There will be plenty enough. Stop light leaks.

Is that the only choice I have? I feel so damn sad after all that effort to have to do that....

If this plant did go into flower, it could grow twice as big and tall. Or more. The dead leaves and everything below have got to go for sure.

It’s like hair, it will grow back.

I removed all dead leaves. It is certainly in pre flower, and I dont know how much of stress the plant will go through if I cut everything above scrog, cuz its loaded. And it was below the scrog before the switch. It burst in height after the switch, reaching to where it is now. You can see all the pics from day one in the link I shared: https://growithjane.com/growlog/pagla-evcc/

it honestly isn't going to stress it out that much, i mean... its already not producing buds, if its true like you say it is, "I don't have light leaks" then what do you really have to lose then listen to an experienced grower?
Vicamation
Member
Sigh, well, if I got no other choice, then i guess I will go for it. Can you please explain exactly what I need to do, which areas to cut off, nutrients, light schedule etc?

is that rue as in 1 flicker for less than a second during flower or do you mean a flicker of light penetrating the whole 12 hours
i sometimes shine my light at the temp gage in the middle of the night

Also, please have a look at these pics, the pistils seem to be more, and it looks like this one is flowering. This is at the far back of the box.....

Idk for sure aparently plants can detect a flicker of light but I don't what effects it would have in your case, but it's well known that 15 min of light every 4/6hrs will stop flowering initiating I think it requires 10/11hrs of uninterrupted darkness.
