Fastest measurable bud

Whats the fastest from planting to harvest (whether that harvest be premature or not) that you can actually have a good amount of smokeable weed with out killing the plant?

advice for doing so:
(mind you i have a handfull of baggie-seeds and 10 thai skunk seeds AND im a first time grower)

NOONE can really give u an answer to that as you can tell...It all depends on many variables such has lighting, gentetics etc... Pre-Mature or Mature buds can range any where from a grams to pounds per plant...

The fastest time I've seen is 6-7 weeks. There are no shortcuts when it comes to doing this, and any that you may take will only ruin your crop. Take your time, do your research (my partner and I spent about 50 hours reading and watching videos before we started), invest in the right materials and don't micro-manage too much and you should be fine.
