Fermentation leveled of at 1014 after 7 days.
Bottle with no additional sugar (by accident) turned out to be great and also with reasonable co2 after 8 weeks.
Bottle with priming of 7 gr/liter was high on co2 (1 exploding bottle) but still to sweet.
Next time prime with only 3 gr/liter and leave alone for a while or do a secondary to give yeast some more time.
