Doesn't look like it from the pics. Get a microscope and check the trichomes. If they're all milky with some amber ones you're ready to chop chop. If some are still clear you've got time to bulk them up. Once amber trichomes start popping up you're getting real close.

I can tell you one thing for sure, if you hung and dried those right now, there wouldn't be much of anything except larf there once it was dried. But, I've seen plants that had been blooming for 12 weeks and never chunked up. Hopefully that's not the case for you bro. What week are you on?

I really don’t know because I never thought it would grow. I planted one seed I found in a bag. Started the plant outside at the end of May.

It’s in a 5 gallon bucket on my deck. It may not get really fat.
Well, cannabis starts budding naturally in early August outdoors in California and probably everywhere else in America. So, you're probably in the later stages of flower. Maybe week 7ish? Depending on strain it could have anywhere from 1-3 weeks left. Probably more like 2 weeks though. Is the plant getting direct sunlight? Is it shaded often? Throw it out in some direct sun for a week and see if it chunks up. You should probably feed it with some ripening nutrients (lots of K). Try hitting it with some MOAB and get that girl as much light as you can!

Looks like your lady turned ladyboy, also if you planted it outside maybe around October should be finished.

Well, cannabis starts budding naturally in late June-July outdoors. So, you should be getting close to harvest by now. I'm assuming the plant isn't getting much direct sunlight? Is it shaded often?

My plant has been indirect sunlight since I’ve had it outside. Light goes North to south, so it gets direct sun until at least 5:00pm. And I’ve never used Fertilizers. Only rain water or tap.

Ok. Well, if you want chunky bud you're going to want to feed the girls bro. There's a lot of cheap options that will give you great results, but the girl has to eat!
