when u get close to 12 hours light 12 dark it will start to flower but im unsure of how ur seasons change in spain. u could also make it flower by giving it 12 hours complete darkness a day but means taking it in and out everyday for at least 2 months.

Not many places on earth are 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark. Outdoor plants start to flower because the spectrum of the sun changes as well as the shorter days. Indoor plants react similar but since a bulb can't replicate the spectrum of the sun changing the 12/12 schedule plays a bigger part than it does outdoors.

I have a plant that has been outdoors from March 12th. It JUST started to form buds about 3-4 days ago, some 45 days AFTER all the other plants out there started to turn. Patience. Sativa Dominant plants take more time; lots more time...

you must have a very sativa dominant strain, get a big bud strain for next year, if it hasn't started budding now you will not get a harvest this year unfortunately.

it may start to bud but it won't give you anything that you would want to smoke. as you said once the high humidity comes rolling in you will have budrot, maybe you positioned the plant poorly and it isn't getting enough quality light to make it flower.

there could be a thousand reasons the plant isn't flowering but if it has no pistils on it it will not finish in time.
