So if I got an 8 week strain and its in week 5 of flowering with little iddy bitty ol' 4 inch long 1 inch wide buds, just how in the heck are them lil ol' buds gonna grow into huge ass sticky dense fat large hairy sparkly thick girthy wide stinky heavy buds in 3 (4) weeks?
Puney buds to fat buds in 3 weeks?

At the end of your grow let your plants sit in total darkness for a couple days. They really bulk up. A friend of mine found this out by going to jail after he turned his lights off. Off for about 6 days. They got huge. It was not a drug related charge.

You should use some sugar ^_^
I'll quote from Jorge Cervantes:
"Adding sugar during the last 6 weeks augmented harvest weight of the bud by 20 percent."
Get yourself some good ol' blackstrap molasses or honey (as long as everything is organic), and those buds will bulk up.

He is talkin about molassas. 2 tbsp per gallon of water. I give it to my plants almost every watering. They do seem to do better on it.

Good to remember that the timelines you see are typically from when the buds start showing, making a typical 8 week plant about 10-11 weeks.

Dont worry, last 2 weeks is when they add on most of their weight, btw, the 8 week is a rough guess, its not a guarentee its gonna be ready.
