So 5 weeks and 2 days..........relax.
Don't pay attention the breeders times.
They look good, but you might consider lowering the nitrogen.
Good luck.

abt, when I first grew out Malawi Gold from Angus I believed him and let it go for 22 weeks. Sometimes ya just gotta follow directions.
I still have a bag of the Malawi as when I take 3 hits I can't drive. Let it run.

Two hits of the hash I made from it makes watching cartoons easy. Just sit in front of the TV, don't bother turning it on.

Not that much bigger imo. Seems like the calyxes are already swelling and not much more pistil growth.
Could be wrong but, I've grown plants like that before. Tiny buds.

Edit: I see you did defoliate heavily. Might have stunted it. Have you ran this cut before and did it have decent colas?

I did a heavy defoliate at I think week 3 soon as I saw buds I was trying to watch 1 YouTube video and they said to do a heavy defoliation at week 3 also my first time growing the strain is runtz x jelousy

That sounds like an awfully long time to show in my experience. We’re they healthy at the time of transition/flip ? The buds generally grow to size first, then begin to swell and pack on mass as they slowly ripen.
Would you say they’re ripening now? And would u say 2-3 oz a plant still possible?

It’s your first grow right? Throw all your expectations about yield away, grow the plants and use the experience to learn. Keep things as basic as possible the plants know what to do, you’re just there to feed them and maintain the environment. Then once you’re comfortable with the plants you start playing with shit.

It looks like the plant is confused, and doesn’t know whether it wants to continue to grow or finish up. Some fresh white clumps of pistils are popping, while others are ripening. As for yield, there’s really no way to guess.

Bingo!! This all the way. Toss out the expectations and just work to survive the grow. Keep em happy, keep track of days, but not for harvesting, just for info, and harvest. Take notes. Keep a grow journal so you can reference it. That way when you grow that strain again, you have reference points.
