Thoughts on Indoor vs Outdoor Quality

[Dopesmoka]

I ve smoked some outdoor and it seemed it was a better high than indoor but indoor maked me more stoned

I’ll agree with that depending on the type of smoker you are, me personally I prefer the choke after every hit and zombie mode that comes right after some high quality indoor

Ive smoked and grown outdoor that could hang with the best indoor.. Don't look as pretty but as far as getting the job done..no problem .

Yeah i think outdoor organic feels more euphoric i guess or i don t know how to say it.

After the fires and the smoke that followed I have to say I like indoor or greenhouse produced buds best. The runoff from the washing was ugly and sad that it had to be done. What is even more disturbing is there is flower being sold that was grown outdoors that hasn't been washed.. Pity the fools that inhale those contaminates deep into their lungs.

I bet many people here have smoked some A+ greenhouse or dep flowers that were marketed as indoor and couldnt tell the difference.

Best I've ever smoked was outdoor grown.

It really comes down to the grower more than where it is grown. Talent is always the key ingredient.

Since most growing was outdoors way back, the best grows were outdoor. Not coincidentally they also came from the warmest or best climates too.

Today there is so much indoor...and so many growers, it doesn't matter much imo. Bag appeal of course an indoor is easier but when outdoor is perfect, it is the best.

The best outdoor I ever had I had got it the day before my birthday and luckily got 2 seeds out of it but 1 didn’t germinate, she wasn’t the prettiest looking flower but had an unique fruity smell

Outdoor ... good soil ... natural fertilisers only ...

... that combo can produce some sweet tasting and butt kicking bud

she wasn’t the prettiest looking flower

Look at these two little pieces of scrag I discovered budding 3 months ago outside a back room in my digs:



Lovely deep purple on the smaller one:

unique fruity smell

- Shitty pot
- Shitty soil
- Total neglect

And yet both of those little girls has the sweetest fruitiest smell I have ever come across in my 30+ years of smoking.

The smoking buzz was what I can only call medicinal ... the closest similar experience would be in the opiate line.

Neither an indica knock you over smackdown ...
... nor a speedy trippy sativa stimulant

More like an Opium "Simply Do Not Give a F--- about Anything" lucid state of mellow calmness that started at the shoulders and spread into a full-body-stone feeling of bliss ...

- - -

Here are their offspring



Here is the core soil that they will be transplanted into



And here are my earthworms doing their last week of organic living soil prep for me



If the scrag was so fruity sweet and such a calm pleasant opiate stone ...

... I cannot wait to sample what those bad girls will produce are given love and care and over abundance of organic nutrients
... and fresh air
... and African sun

I'm expecting 5 feet of absolute Frutti Tutti goodness

It is amazing how the plants we fuss over the least sometimes come out great. That looks like a fun project and a seed that grows like that and healthy should be amazing when given extra care!

Or maybe it will come out poor because you tend to it......lol!

Switching from indoor to outdoor growing I can say I haven't noticed a difference in flavour for the plants in pots, but the flavour on the plants grown straight in the ground is a bit better. Noticeable, but not really a huge difference.
Potency seems to be a bit higher all round. It may be subjective, but I think the sunlight was better for them. Again, not really a big difference, but still seems to be there.
Main difference was the outdoor plants were leafier, and plants in the ground were huge.

 

[Dopesmoka]

Ok ok next year I will see for myself I got a bunch of s1 seeds that I can plant, this should be fun.

On the topic of washing outdoor bud...it does rain so it makes sense to me.

My Q would be...is it better to wash it while still alive on the plant, let it dry then cut it, or cut it first then wash it? Seems like if it was alive there would be no possible negatives?

I'd take that old outdoor grown Humboldt County we started getting back in the late 70's and early eighties over almost anything out there today. That was some damn good weed. The taste and smell was exceptional. A one gram bag would stink up the room which is why we called it Skunk bud.

Still the best imo. Best growers best climate lots of tradition. Head melting.

All I know is my low-budget outdoor buds smell and taste better than any of the stuff from my local dispensary that grows in a multi-million dollar state of the art facility.

Thats why a lot of us are here!

They build for profits...not best quality.
Sadly I dont see a model yet where a cultivator provides better quality at a higher price. There seems to be a market of "good enough" and I think that is a mistake.

Wow! Just A beautiful view.

I didnt read a post, but indoor quality cannot be rivaled if done right. Theres a million "unknowns" in an outdoor grow. But free mother nature sun is a great temptation

Dont get me wrong, if you pass me a j, Ill puff on it no matter whats in it
