I started some Nirvana NL fems last spring for outdoor gardener friends & kept a couple for myself. The larger of the two was an excellent yielder with good structure, stiff branches & low odor, good potency as well. Very much a medical type indica stone. I like a headier more cerebral effect so I probably won't be growing more other than starts for friends. It does well outdoors here in Denver & finishes around Oct 1. Very stealthy because it stays low & really is low odor when growing.

What size pot and final dry?

Critical Mass is also a VERY forgiving strain.
It handles all kind of stress and environmental influences well along with pests.
It's easy to clone, reacts well to topping, pushes roots fast and well etc. etc.

Running it at the moment myself trying to find a keeper out of 50 beans. Looks great so far and my previous experience with the strain (5 popped, 4 matured, 1 female flowered) has me very excited.

It was also the best yielding among the plants I flowered but I do not remember weight, height etc.

I can highly recommend.

I use 5 gal fabric pots, scratch organic soil, blumats, 37w/ sq.ft CDM lighting. It was 6 weeks veg & 9 in flower. The larger specimen in the pic yielded 128g, the smaller one yielded 88g.

Yield usually isn't a primary consideration. My normal yields are in the 70-90g per plant range when there are 5-6 plants in the roughly 4x4 space.

The outdoor plant is still standing but will obviously yield a lot more.

BlackToothGrin, (purple indica X SCreme)

Bred for the mountains here, stands up to cold well. Avg 3 to 3.5 per 100gal outdoors.

Hard to beat a chronic in sog in term of yield/sqm but easy to beat in any other method.

That's my point : yield is first a question of method, then best yield is a question of the right strain for the right method.
