I planted a WorldOfSeeds NorthernLightsXBigBud auto in DWC as a backup seed for a different failed sprout.
It didn't start flowering until 10 weeks in, and I had to chop 2 feet off to keep it away from the lights.
I harvested the accompanying strains by the 12 week mark, but the NLxBB kept growing.
After that, I let the NLxBB fill the whole 3 ft x 3 ft tent, and had to train it away from the lights.
Finally, I lost patience after 17 weeks, so I harvested it to make room for the next batch of plants.
It wasn't ripe, and needed a week or two more.
The total dry weight was 15 oz, but the buds were a bit weaker than average.
The last time I grew it, I estimated the potency to be about 14%, and this one seems to be about 12%, judging from the amount needed for good sleep.
As most of us know, but photo growers might not, autos can get huge, and yield huge.
The unimpeded height of this indica monster would probably have been about 9 feet.
If I had this to do over again, I'd probably just trash the plant at the 6 week mark, because its size undoubtedly harmed its tent mates.
I ended up with much more NLxBB than I wanted, and less of the other strains that I really wanted.
