Why did it take about 35 years for Siddhartha to become the Buddha?

There is no timeline to become enlightened.Buddhism accepts reincarnation and understands that it can take untold cycles of death and rebirth before understandings is attained.

In that last life (before enlightenment) he spent years as an idle rich person surrounded with luxury, had a period of awareness when he discovered suffering, years as a wandering mendicant and aesthetic, had a flash of understanding at the end of his meditation under the body tree which crystallized as the Four Noble Truths and Eightfold Path, and years of expressing his understanding to others. Of this lifetime which 35 years could one define as the time he took to become the Buddha.
