So i have this plant that doesent seem to start flowering properly. Its a mixture between earlys, photos and autos. Earlys are quite far in the genetic line already, it has some sativa genes also further in the genetic line from one side, also northern lights, matanuska tundra and af is from low ryder(#1 i think). All of the parents have been stabilized to be able to flower in 65° N(some genes since 70s i think and some just 2 generations) before mixed together, then selected af only indoors. I suspect it has at least almost the most complex af genetics in the world
But because it has some photos mixed in at just 4th gen, it might still make some photos. But this sort of trying to flower, but wont quite start is new to me. Also its been a long time since i last grew, so im quite rusty with this stuff..
Its been about 4 weeks since it showed first preflowers(at around age of 4 weeks) and still there is no proper bud forming, just more preflowers(which seem quite small, is this a trait for some or does it just mean crappy genes?) and typical early flower growth explosion and it seems to grow in more sativa style. The plant did have a slow start with veg also, it grew a lot slower than others at first, but then when it started to show preflowers, it quickly grew bigger than others, now its just growing and growing and is going to be huge even if it starts to bud properly tomorrow.. Swiss dream cbd auto seems planted at the same time looks like about 2 weeks from ready and what seems to be fastest of auto blackberry kush planted at same time seem about 3 weeks from ready..
I read that some people have had autos that just didnt flower, but im not sure if they were just some rare photo phenos or if they started preflowering in 20/4 light(and not after like 2 months), but just wouldnt bud properly.
So does it seem likely that this is just some slow sativa pheno or that the genes are just somehow f'd up?
Heres a pic of whole plant, its not been topped, just some lst after it started to look like its going to blow up big time
Here is the main "cola"
