Bareos. Full backup lifetime?

Good evening! I'm trying to get bareos-bacula. I don't have tapes, I do everything on a regular hard drive.
I set a schedule to make a full backup every fifth week, and a diff backup every day.
Set up storage pools with the following config:

Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 65 days
#Volume Use Duration = 45h
Maximum Volume Bytes = 100G

I share the Pool, for differential and full backups, that is, I have two pools with different Labels. But the config is the same.
And everything seems to be cool, it makes normal backups from the file trash. Only for some reason he again began to make a full backup for one task, despite the fact that he did a full backup 2 days ago.
Tell me what's wrong with it? The system works well, I do not sin on it. Maybe you need to specify the lifetime of a full backup somewhere? Or a maximum of how many volumes Bareos will look for a full backup (now, to be honest, there are already quite a lot of them)? Or maybe due to the fact that bareos is sharpened for tapes, he is looking for a full backup in the same volume?
Help who knows.
