When do buds pack on weight?

I have a plant already at 4 weeks in the flowering phase and the buds are still smaller. They are "popcorn" nugs and the top cola just now forming is very whispy. Is this normal for 4 weeks in? How long does it take for nugs to put on weight? I am giving them regular nutrients as well. Fox farm Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom. Thanks.

I found it depends a lot of what kind of climate your in,,,, dry climates take longer to bud and finish,, humid climates rock......... post sum pix.

its dependent on strain but lets say on an 8 week cycle buds start forming at about week 2 and 3 but the majority of growth is vertical and horizontal meaning they get taller and bushier.. around week 4 the growth stops and concentration of growth starts on the flowers.. they get to their mature "size" around week 6 and 7 and start filling out and becoming dense during weeks 6-8... the figures are varied but some say up to 30 percent of the final dried weight comes in the last 10-14 days. hope this helps
