5th week, are you counting from light flip or first sign of sex, to my eye looks like you are just a few days into week 3 of flower.
What light and size are you using, what size tent?
Reason I ask is can clearly see your node spacing is stretched, your fan leaves are mostly all reaching for the light. They are signs that the light even tho it maybe a top brand might not be powerful enough for that space.

The light is Mars TLS2000 , same one I’ve used for 5 years. The tent is 2x4. This is the 5th week since going to 12/12. Appreciate your response. I was just wondering usually in soil with autos the buds are way bigger.

Ok it’s a good light and right size, but your count form 12/12 it’s a process of max 2 weeks so technically your only in week 3 of flower she is right on track. What nutrients are you using, and are you topping off with just PH water or nutrients water? Just trying to look at all possible routes, how high up and what intensity do you have the light, like I said the fan leaves look to be reaching for the light.
Not trying to be a know it all or anything like that just trying to help and expand my knowledge along the way.
Hope you have a great day growbro

Plant looks hella-happy!
There’s no way you’re in week 5 of flower tho. I’m guessing 3 weeks in flower (max) or less. If you really flipped to 12/12 5 weeks ago i wouldn’t hold much hope for that plant in terms of yield.
Have you confirmed there are no major light leaks in your setup?

Advanced nutrients. Topping off 2 times a day with nutrient water. Checking ph, ppm. And EC. Changing water once a week. Using grow micro bloom big bud and bud candy.

Forgot light is all the way maxed and at the top of tent. If this thing gets taller might have to use yo yos which would defeat purpose of scrog. Forgot that the first 3 weeks of flower ec was only at 1.5 that might be some of the problem.

Ok I’m right in your alley bro, I also use Advanced Nutrients, do you use the PH perfect and it’s a photo or auto.
I was on the phone with Andrew from Advanced Nutrients customer support for hours and Autos get half strength, photos get full. And you know about the feeding calculator right?
Is what I use to know exactly what an when to feed.

I use ph perfect and know about autos. I use their feeding calculator but am cautious going full strength to prevent burn. I bumped this plant up to ec 2.0 and ppm 1010 today will wait and see. This is the first dwc I’ve done and its a work in progress. Thanks
