Mephisto Genetics Forum stomper not flowering

[pcgrower]

Hey guys and girls.
Have grown many meph strains, this is my forum stomper, in coco, under 150w cfls in a PC grow case, currently at 37 DAYS.
All my other mephis have begun signs of flowering at 20-30 days. Plant was fimmed at day 15 and did not slow after this at all, also has had lots of lst but again has grown vigorously.
I am worried she may be a photo?
Has anyone else had this in their experiences?
Am currently at 20-4 seriously considering flicking to 12/12 for a week to kickstart flower?
I'd love any help
Thanks guys

I have a CDLC that is only now hitting flower - day 53.

I think topping and hard LST can dent some girls and slow them down. Not that I think it affects yield.

Others, like my GPW ignore topping and will be done super quick!!

Don’t worry! Forum Stomper flowers late. HST and LST slow them down. Currently it’s the second time I run this lovely strain (topped and LST) and my experience is, that they stretch until the late forties/early fifties before entering in flower. They can get very branchy so a good plant management is recommended.

Good luck and have fun! It‘s a nice strain and a great smoke!

Thank you both for your answers
Should I expect 80 days minimum for harvest given the length of vege?

The pics give zero insight on the plants size. Fimming can slow things down. I see preflowers in the pic. But no info on nutes or anything. My guess is you need more time. But more info would help. Good luck

Probably about 8-10 weeks from now with flush

It depends a lot on your further treatment and the grade of maturity you prefer (cloudy? amber?). If you are going to manipulate her (bending, pruning,...) even more during the grow, she likely will take 95+ days from sprout to be mostly cloudy or cloudy. Mine is topped and I applied a way lighter LST than you and -based on my experience with this strain- I estimate that she‘ll be ready after +/- 82-85 days (no amber).

BTW I don‘t think Forum Stomper was a good choice to be grown in such a small space like yours. Giving her enough space, she‘s absolutely wonderful! One of my Mephisto favorites and definitely a keeper. But IMHO she‘s too big and branchy for your needs.

Good luck and happy growing!

I agree. Great strain, but not for any micro grow. I would suggest Sour Crack or 24 Carat instead. Good luck

Thanks for your honest info, much appreciated, have done sour crack last grow and was perfect, I got abit cocky and got the stomper lol, I think k she is very very very early flowering etc I think by day 40 I'll see definite pistils etc.
Sorry I didnt give as much info as some of you required, I thought the info provided may have been enough? I am using nutrifield nutes coco a and b at 1/2 to 3/4 reccomended and have had super minimal burn or deficiencies. Man....if stretch hasnt even begun then I'm screwed because as the pic shows, shes chockablock.
