Not maturing

OK so I have a reg bagseed (very heavy sativa) that's been under flower for around 75 days. Lots of good flower on it a lot of white hair but no mature buds. I did make a newbie mistake and was feeding it nitro during flower now just feeding mammoth P every 3rd watering and changed the light schedule to 10/14 about 3 weeks ago. Any suggestions on this thing? Idk if I should trash it or not. I do Now have a kurple fantasy in flower (today's its first day) and a purple trainwreck about to go in about a week or so. But this bag plant is getting very irritating 0% of flower has started to turn orange anything to help me get this thing to produce something smokable would be very helpful.

10/14 ? and my plants are failing???
mammoth P?
where do people get this stuff?

buy a quality nutrient food and follow directions.
read jorge cervantes grow bible for some mind blowing revelations

darken them for a whole day, change to 12/12 already, like god does in his indoor marijuana garden geesh
 
Hey man sounds like your plant needs a jump start. Check out the Big Bud product from Advanced Nutrients, it will help your buds mature and get bigger, then follow up with Overdrive if you find it needed. I myself use it only if needed, no need to waste money. Do some research on those man. Best of Luck!

Lets see..
First off... PICS PICS PICS!!! please
But what kind of light are you using and what are you temps and humidity looking like?
I would also strongly advise switching them to 12-12 in order to induce flowering.
Also i would look into the Advanced Nutrient lines for some fertilizers and if you're new to this pick up some General Hydroponics Maxibloom ( which you can use in all mediums) super cheap and works really well as a base nutrient.
But like the guy above suggest AN Fertz really help they really help big bud and bud factor x are what i am currently using and they are working wonders.
I would definitely not toss it out yet as you may just throw away all your hard work. You need some patience and also a pocket microscope to check out what your trichomes are looking like which is also a good way to tell if harvest is closing in. (50% milky heads 30% clear, and 20% amber)
I also think i read somewhere that really heavy sativa hairs dont always orange up but turn slightly pink or so. Il try to find that article and see if it applies.
Hopefully this helps some

"no need to waste money" but recommended AN. That's funny.

ive heard good things about mammoth p and dropping the light cycle to less hours is a trick to help finish plants
maybe be a little more open to how others do things

Here is a couple pics of her.....I had it on 12/12 for weeks then I read to switch it to 10/14
From the looks of it i think your light is not strong enough. It looks like its growing healthy just not getting what it needs.
So what light bulb are you using, and that mammoth bloom what is the N-P-K?
Also feeding every thrid watering is not that beneficial youre basically flushing the soil out every week which will keep the plant from getting what it needs. I would switch to every other watering you feed and trying to experiment with how much nutrients your plant can absorb before getting burned. Considering the age of the plant it should be able to take more nutrients than what youre currently giving it.
Also i have never ever read anywhere to have 10/14 lighting for flowering but thats just me.

After looking up Mammoth P i think the reason why its not really helping you out is because you also need to be using a base nutrient line on top of that from what i understand that is only a fertilizers.

the plant is all around pretty healthy so pretty sure nutes arent his concern. with out knowing all the specs it hard to say for sure, but im sure hes in soil and the plant looks healthy i think his feeding is fine.
tons of people drop the light cycle shorter especially for sativas

Its under high pressure sodium I believe its a 250 water not sure really I didn't buy it. But the veg room has a 250 watt metal halide and those are doing fantastic. I read the 10/14 on leafly according to that site autumn days shorten so therefore I had to trick the plant into thinking its autumn?? I'll look and see what the npk is on that mammoth

His buds look absolutely puny for being 75 days into flower. Which i believe is from not a strong enough light or from not giving his plants what it needs to swell and mature his buds properly. And maybe they do but Im currently growing a big batch of sativa heavy green crack on 12-12 and using what i recommended above with amazing results.

i see some single bladed leaves. i think it revegged on you
enough light or not its a healthy green plant not a nutrient issue IMO

when a plant reveg it stops making buds and starts making leafs again. tell me that woolly bastard doesnt have extra leafs that why his buds havent matured
