Foxtailing and Rounded Sugar Leaves?

So I've got a couple strains going in my flowering tent, n they all seem to be right on track, but I noticed on one of the more sativa dominant strains (GG1) that some of the sugar leaves look like the rounded reveg growth coming out of the buds, n minor foxtailing too (the foxtailing doesn't really worry me - seems to be a common haze/sat dom trait)...Starting to wonder if this strain needs more than 12 hours of dark to properly flower - whatcha think? I mean I expect this strain to take longer to flower being sat dom, but it's taking a looong time to get going, and has that reveg look recently and the foxtailing...just making me think something is kinda off in the environment

My first thought was possibly light leaks causing them to reveg or something, but all the other girls are flowering just fine. For instance this SBA has been in the flowering tent for the same amount of time n she's right where she should be maturity wise:

And GG 3 is right on track as well:

CSS looks fine too...

Are the rounded sugar leaves on GG 1 something to be concerned about?

I have space dawgs that shoot out, veg looking leaves in buds, they always come out fine. and i know for a fact its not light leaks. I think its just the strain itself, because i also have other in the same room doing just fine.

Back off the nutes and lower the amount of N, Sat's and some Sat Doms are finicky eaters
You thinkin' too much N retarding flower production/development? Maybe the blood meal in the tea she got early in flower was just too much N for her? Haven't been using any bottled nutes this run, but they have all gotten 3 teas since sprouting

Think you're right - She was getting pretty dark green for a while. It's fading back to a healthier green slowly, gonna stick w/ str8 water for a while longer. Its looking like tht strain could be a heavy yielder if I can get it back on track. I've got 2 clones of her that just went into flower as well, so maybe I can optimize the genetic potential a little more the 2nd run through. Thanks boss. I'll go light on the N for the clones

Fox-tailing for me has always indicated either too much heat, too much PK, or too much light. If your heat is under control that would signal to me that maybe your lady wants a shorter light cycle....maybe start with 11/13. You look like you're in the safe zone as far as "bad" fox tails though....your hairs are still mostly white so the fox tails still have time to mature with the rest of the bud. It's the last 2-3 weeks or so that you really want to avoid them and that's why it's common practice to reduce light to 11/13, 10/14, and even 8/16 during the last couple of weeks to halt any potential regrowth.
