So about a week in and readings are still where they are supposed to be. When should I be expecting spikes in the tank?

Am I crazy for thinking that the bio-load on this tank is extremely low, and that cycling might take a while? I'm not particularly fond of the idea of doing 50% water changes every couple days for a month...

Additionally, I have some pond snails in a one gallon container, and I'm wondering how long it normally takes em to breed? They leave slime trails behind em and poop alot, but no evidence of egg sacs.
