The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests ready around mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
