5 weeks is too early to expect fat nugs...things will usually swell up in the last 2 weeks

ur buds should be developing nice by now but they wont nec. be big yet

could aslo be ur genetics...

maybe ur light are too far as well??

Everybody on here is wrong.
Everybody on here is correct.

There's way too many factors that go into growing, and way too many different strains and phenos of those strains that all react differently, for all information to work on every persons grow. You could simply have a low yielding strain. It could be under fed, leading to smaller yield. Your lights could be too far away, causing lower yield. It could be too hot. It could be too cold. The space could be CO2 deficient. etc.
See what I'm saying?
Not all of the time, but most of the time, those claiming "this is the 'right' way to do it" are either trying to sell you something, or are just plain stupid.
There's really not very many absolutes. Everything else is personal preference only.

There's always more than one opinion on every subject too. Example FACT: not every breeder counts the day of transition to 12/12 as day one of flowering.


Ah, sorry, I'm rambling..........

Maybe not all, but most. Subcool and TGA genetics do..

I am not sure why people dont get thisflowering starts the day the lights go 12/12 not on some observational guess on the growers part :)

I'm not getting it - What's your point?

Man, I just don't understand why so many people have their heads so far up subcools ass. Probably future cult members.
