Is it normal for buds to be fat as 2 thumbs 40 days of flowering?

Yea i know... and i feel sorry bout that.. But this is smthing i cant help cuz i feel so bad due to the defoliating i did in the beginning of week 2 of flower when i cut off 80% of the fan leaves leaving only the ones on the top of the colas and whenever i look on youtube a grow at the same stage as mine , i find out that my buds look 30-40% smaller
You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube. Look what you learned though. If you defoliate, you get smaller buds. Next time try not doing that and see if you get bigger buds.

At least you have buds, and they look like they are doing well now.

I didn't read beyond the first few posts to not get side tracked by other opinions.

In my opinion I think the plants are at their normal size.

Week 2-4 Lots of hairs
Week 4-5 Calyxs begin to grow from the hairs
Week 6 Calyx tips are visible and budding is beginning
Week 7+ Budding is in full effect

No problem, don't worry about other comments.
Even though you should keep leaves on until their so shriveled or crispy that they serve no use but to attract pests and mold, then remove.

Everyones plants will be different with every setup, at week 8 if you don't have buds then come back and make a thread asking for opinions.
At the age and level of growing you have, they are fine, I'd even wager to say perfect.

Just gotta remember a lot of people on this site have been growing for 10+ years so they normally don't see plants like yours in their garden, they usually are well ahead because of experience, skill, and equipment.

I recommend getting some Snow Storm Ultra or Overdrive, they really work well and are cheap.
SSU will make your plant look like a very snowy Christmas morning, and OD will really bulk up your plants.

Also a tip, don't use molasses.
I personally think it does more harm than good, mainly a placebo.
In fact plants tend to yellow a lot faster and more when given it compared to those that aren't.

Anyway best of luck.

cool.. so they are supposed to pack alot more in size and weight meaning they will double in size or smthing?
They should get a tad bigger but don't count on getting those massive buds that many new growers feel that they'll be getting. Just be happy with whatever you get and know you'll do better your next grow! My first grow ever I got 13 grams, my second I got an ounce and a half, and my third I yielded over 4 ounces from a single plant! Its all about perfecting the art!

My friend......I'm guessing that in about six months from now after you get a few grows under your belt you'll look back at your obsession about bud size and realize that you drove people crazy. How many people have told you that your buds look fine....10?....15?

God....I hope you have a big dick cause if you don't you must have driven woman crazy in bed....."Is my dick as big as the other's you've seen?"

My last word about your grow......FUCKIN' RELAX!
