Taking ages to flower??

I have done a few grows, started on NFT, then DWC (oxypots), then organic soil and now back to NFT.......I am not really a newbie, but by no means very experienced either. I have some Dutch Passion Power Plant and Serious seeds Chronic on the tables at the mo, started off with 7 PP and 6 Chronic. Got some early signs (8 days) that there were 4 males and so chopped em and one Chronic preflowered (female) early too. I have taken 4 clones from Chronic which at 4 weeks veg had a 1 1/2 inch stem and only 14 inches tall!! with a view to getting a mother going (currently under ecolight 250w fluoro(blue)), I am 14 days into flowering (turning the lights to 12/12)but although the power plants really stink (smells like diesel fumes when i brush the stems) they have not showed any signs of flowering yet. I know what to look for, but am a little worried as i would normally have seen some bollocks/pistils by now! Am I being a little premature? I am counting 14 days from the date I turned the clocks to 12/12. There are no light leaks into the room when its dark and no LED'S from leads etc. I just worry that I may run out of time and get a shit result which luckily I have not had to date.
Last grow, 3 Dutch Passion PP yielded 15 (dry), previous 2 x AK47 = 14 (dry) and some other good, but not quite so impressive results.??
Any thoughts??
