Hi, a quick Q if you don't mind (I could give lots of details but I feel like being succinct otherwise I'll be typing for the next hour )...

Does Chronic normally produce 'skimpy' buds by wk 5? Is this strain renowned for fattening up?

I've given up on this grow tbh as I'm sure the factors I've changed (i.e. soil) are responsible for the shit yield so far. I'm not sure though cos my 7th (or so) generation Skunk #1 also produced poor yield from the new soil, but I'm not entirely sure if that is due to it being a 7th gen cutting or if the soil really is that bad (Westland Advanced+, really fibrous shit). I'm pretty certain it's the shite soil, but I was interested to know (in my drunken state) if perhaps it was worth waiting a couple more weeks before giving up on it.

Thanks in advance, happy weekend!

Im using the westland advanced +, and really rate it and so does herbal boxer.

I also rate the West advanced plus. 908

I also use West+ and love it.
Most fatten up in the last 2 weeks, have a look into some chronic diarys in the grow diary forum and see if yours look the same.

Yeah man, they should start to fatten up nice before too long. I just dood the chronic grow myself and it was the last 3 weeks of 10 flowerin that them buds started lookin respec'able like.

Cheers people, thanks for the feedback.
