Just to relay what's possible, several years ago I scored a 1/4 of some no-name dank that seemed more like commercial bud in appearance, brown, bone dry and sub-par taste. Surprisingly it had about a dozen seeds I cracked, sensing a potential lurking behind the brown and musty bud. Out of 7 females one smaller tighter phenol came out unreal in the potency dept. A true one-of-a-kind that was almost unbelievably potent with a hammer kick that hit as strong at the end of the day as the first morning wake-n-bake. So powerful I rightfully placed a little hallogram lightning bolt sticker on the sacks I'd sell and named her Atomic Chronic without blinking. But along with this unreal high was an equally unreal speed to finish. So unusual was this pheno, and largely due to it's off-the-charts potency, I could get away with harvesting at just past 4 weeks and it still was about as good as anything on the streets. Tight and gnarly with plenty of ripe-looking trichs and a good taste to match. But at 6 weeks it would blow anything else away, even top shelf stuff. Sure, some simply won't believe it, and I wouldn't either if I hadn't witnessed it myself.
