streching the flowering time will increase yields..??

hi i m frm calcutta india ..and m growing a bagseed plant ..looks more sativa dominant to me .....
i grow on my window sill where i get 4-5 hours of direct sunlight from east followd by indirect which i guess da lumens are above 15k max 20000.....soil compost of approx 40% cocopeat 40% black soil aka normal soil found in calcutta..and rest 20 is vermicompost and bone meal blood meal and banana peel...
it was doing great until after 4 weeks of flowering i was overexcited and gave too much nitrogen burn to da plant by adding DAP fertilizer beliving that increasing phosphorous will help bud growth but instead caused Nutrient toxicity...
well i flushed it the next day n still havnt added any nutrients to it...its been almost 3 weeks now n the plant doesnt seem to recover at all
budz are growing darn slow n my plant is strectching like crazy ...but the good part is there are lots of nodes and leaves forming on the side branches and the cola is turning out to b hugs ass!!....IMAG0117.jpg
my question is dat ...m sure this will delay my harvesting timeIMAG0120.jpg ...and since its sativa ..well i hav to wait a long time ....so how much longer or delayed is my grow?...people say it will decrease your yield but through wat i see i think i will hav some kick ass huge yield...the cola seeems bloody dense ......wat do u guys think ..will it increase or decrease my yield ... ?
oh yeah one more thing since i thought my plant was about to die i was successful to get 2 clones out of it by using jus da simple water method and then rooting it back again to da soil ..but the problem is that they look healthy yet they look lik they hav some kind of a claw ....can u help me with that ?..i hav no idea why that is happning ..?...here are some pics ...thnx :D

oh gawd noo!!!!!!! :(:( ....i thought this looks great :(...y do i hav to trash it..wont it grow budz if i kept it fr 12/12 :(...?...what about my clones?
nhey it was tall n straight..i had bent it purposely so it recieves more light ...
n hey thnx fr the quick reply...appreciate it :)
 
12/12 makes it grow buds. You can try 12/12 and see what you get you might get a few grams. I problem is you don't/can't pH your soil or anything or have decent nutes. Can you start a compost pile if so start there and after a bit use that soil and let it be. You also need better light

hey thnx for that info...i ll keep it at my south facing window where i guess i get 6-8 hours of direct sunlight...but a bit risky there though ......well its been fin 12/12 fr 4 weeks when toxicity happnd...n after that 3 more weeks of 12/12 and still no recovery ......bt the density of leaves are a lot!! right ?? and hence more budz ?...hey and what do u think about my clones ?...can u help me with the clones ...the last 3 pics are of the clones taken from it.....n yeah i think nxt time i ll prepare a better soil compost :)..thnx :D ....yeah wat do u think abu the clones ?
 
Looks like has N toxicity and is a hemp strain.
With the tiny stem on that your going to need to get something to hold it up if it does grow some buds.
Personally I dont know if I would even bother with it if its still looking like that at 7 weeks.
It needs to be getting atleast 12 hours of complete darkness, This includes the house lights, Turn them on even once and its messing it up.

Window sill light alone isnt enough either, if you want to do that then you need to supplement some extra light to them,
 
hey thnx fr ur reply guys ...m a new grower ..2nd grrow...i was lucky with my first grow and had a decent 25-30g yeild out of 2 foot plant ...
this plant is nt hemp plant since i grew it frm da seeds i got when i had purchased local cannabis which had seeds in it ...the seeds i got was from a dense bud ..... nice sativa straing cuz it had a fruity yet little peppery smell
any ways i think i should dump this plant.....or if its possible can i clone the cola and re veg it again ...so i dont waste time growing the plant back to da same height?. or i can reveg the plant back n let it grow as nature takes it course ??
 
Just let it do it's thing, cant hurt...

In the meantime focus your efforts elsewhere such as the third grow, looks like you have a seed popped already

Some members here have been with it so long their personal standards are through the roof, I'm sure they grow top notch. This being your second shot is a learning experience, let the plant go and learn from any perceived mistakes

I'm not a huge fan of cloning flowering plants just because it revegges and well I'm not huge on that stress and the resulting weird leaf patterns just kinda bug me out hahah. I would keep that plant as is you already got a clone just concentrate on that man, keep learning and growing!

Keep us updated on how mom turns out

hey bro..yeah i m gettin 3 leaf fans ..and some leaves are growing a bit weird...but it got rooted really nicely ..
Yeah i ll continue flowering my mother plant fr another month at max and see what the results are ...if not satisfactory then i ll cut 1/3rd of the plant around 8 inches of cola and clone it and reveg it ..and the remaining plant i ll put it back to reveg mode for mayb a month n try flowering it again since pot size is nt an issue (3 gal pot )....i think i can grow this baby upto 4 feet tall :D ..as for the clones it seems to grow pretty well and i ll make sure i dun overfeed it this time :P..
thnx mate ...peace V

hey i hav transplanted my clones in the new soil and the mixture of soil is
40%soil
30% coco peat
20 % vermicompost
and remaining 10% consist of bone meal(for P) blood meal(for N )and banana peel( for K and trace elements )
do u think this is enough for me to grow my clones till harvest without adding any more nutes to the soil ...m vegging for lik a month and flowering another 2n half months to 3 months .....
and yeah m adding baking soda as ph buffer to maintain it .....
well yes if i see some defficiency happning i will add..but do u think this will work :D ....thnx mate ...boomshankar !! V

It's called monster cropping, look it up.
