Tips for growing weed? Legally of course (hexbear.net)

So I'll be moving to california or some other state where I can grow weed legally. I'm looking for tips on how to grow it when it has already germinated. A buddy of mine had a plant that was supposed to grow big and tall, but it never really grew to more than 9 inches, despite getting plenty of sun and fertilizer. I would like to rectify that when I get the chance to grow mine own.
What could it be that my buddys plant sort of stopped growing in height even when it had optimal conditions? Should it have been planted away from a terracotta pot? It smelled super funky and had a bunch of tiny buds. Should they have been harvested while the plant was growing, or was it better to do as he intended and just do one big harvest? He's also heard something about turning it upside down?
For reference my buddy planted his seed in february, so it should be ready to harvest about now, but it isn't.

So whatever he did, I'd like to know, so I can do not that.

Like another poster said you want to look for a seed bank, then get a feminized non-autoflower.

You could get clones but if you want big, strong plants it is better to use seeds. Start with a small pot and if the leaves reach over the side of the pot it is time to go bigger. The more space for roots, the bigger your plant will get. I only have experience in using soil as a medium tho.
