How much taller will a cannabis plant grow after being changed to the flowering stage?

How much taller will your cannabis plant grow after being put into the flowering stage?

Cannabis will generally double its height after the lights are changed over to 12-12 (12 hours light, 12 hours darkness) which signals the beginning of the flowering stage. Some cannabis strains, especially sativa-dominant strains, can triple in height or more during the flowering stage. Some indica cannabis strains may not get much taller at all during the flowering stage, and may instead just get bushier.
