I bottled an Oktoberfest with priming sugar and am lagering at 38 deg for 6 weeks.. Could I reasonable expect it to be fully carbonated by then??
No, the temp is too low for any meaningful yeast activity. For this scenario, you should let the bottles carbonate first and then lager.
Normally, I lager and then bottle.

What would this look like in a schedule?Lager then bottle and condition and then stick em back in the fridge to continue lagering!
The member you quoted hasn’t been active for almost 3 years. I would follow yoopers advice above... she knows what she’s talking about.What would this look like in a schedule?
I asked this a month ago and @Yooper (who posted above) said to condition as usual (I do 2 weeks at 70) then put in the fridge to “lager” a few weeks or more. i open a dunkel done this way saturday
