Outdoor vs Indoor

I am so freaking sick of Outdoor being considered inferior by know nothing hacks running corporate wanna be dispensaries! My local one sells a strain on sale claiming Outdoor is the reason but it is really their inferior indoor. Why do folks think Outdoor = Bad?

I believe that we will never mimic nature 100% and any cannabis plant grown with love Outdoors in the SUN will by far surpass an Indoor Industrial Grown medicine.

Who's with Me?!

sorry, my indoor always comes out better than any outdoor i've had, although i have a buddy who comes close.

that said, i love trimming through the outdoor stuff and finding bugs and critters that died a slow, trichomy death. poor little guys. such a bittersweet end.

I grow out side and yea seeing those bugs that ODd on trics is great. The idea that I spend $0 for lights and I grow 6 strains a year that lasts all the next year till I've harvestered and cured. I don't know....My cost is under $200 a year..

Correct me if i'm wrong. Say, I have an outdoor crop of 50 plants and a five hour thunderstorm of medium intensity hits overnight. I would think that it would be unlikely ANY plants would survive.

Can a flowering Cannabis plant survive a storm?

yes it can... I think it was last year a member on this site had an outdoor grow going. He lives in New York and at the time they had a hurricane/storm pass over and his babies survived... although they did start getting moldy so he had to pull a lil earlier than he wanted... stay high

weather can be harsh on a plant. Indoor the weather stays the same. Indoor plants don't have to worry about nothing but growing for the most part. jmho

Outdoor is always the best... at least here in Cali.

edit: Greenhouse is pretty good too.

I ideally would have one of those fancy glass greenhouses with a roof that opens. .... plus the country house and walled garden to go with it.

Seems like the best compromise to me. My parents used old modified fishtanks. Outdoor is what I grew up with and is all I know.Thi site and it's multitude of techniques and setups was a total alien discovery for me XD yet I I still managed to pull up/understand enough information to help those in the Newboe section. But this made me wonder, how is it someone who knows NOTHING about indoor growing and little about the ins and outs of growing in general find the answer in five minutes... Could they have not worked it out themselves or looked for the info?So I stopped frustrating myself with that section/accepting PMs a while ago..

But the point of the matter is I don't think I'm in a position to comment. Though does outdoor strictly mean soil outside ? I'm assuming people are more likely to go organic of they are in the great outdoors too.. Then there's the debate over organics vs nutes in a bottle...

I see it's a common problem with alot of people but I've never myself seen our plants with any kind of mild or bug problem, but it's still a factor to consider.

Last summer I took some plants outside of my grow room to enjoy some of the sunshine.... I cleaned the grow-room and put the plants back; within a week I had a Spidermite infestation.

This really put me off the idea of outdoor, although I guess if they were out from the beginning, then natural Spidermite predators would have dealt with them.

Also, A couple of crops ago I sprayed my indoor Kush plants with a little foliar feed. 50% developed some form of budrot. These plants would not enjoy even a slight drizzle outdoors, the buds are tooo dense.

Like Ive said in another thread. I told my outdoor last year for indoor prices 3k a p. I dint not tell them whether it was indoor or outdoor. I told em my price and said take it or leave it. Im sure im not the only one that does it! If grown right Outdoor can be suberb. The problem is every tom dick and harry think they can grow pot since they get free sunlight. And there shiot is jus trash so it gives outdoor a bad name!

I suspect the nutes in the feed had much to do with the rot. The more I read about Cannabis and foliar, the firmer my resolve that it's a technique with no benefit and some real liabilities. The drizzle with its effective 0 ppm would probably have been without problem. Maybe. cn

When I say 'feed', it was actually just 'Maxi-crop Seaweed' and water.... When I sprayed I saw a single drop of water just sitting on one of the buds, I thought to myself 'thats not good' but then thought 'I'll just leave it too evaporate off' ..... it didnt .... I noticed a few days later that single drop had eaten/rotted into the bud.... When I came to crop, half had some form of mold or rot.

Ive not sprayed since and no problem.

Kush plants can be really dense. My buds (Violator kush) are like solid rocks. Its real easy for moisture to get trapped in the bud like a sweaty ball-bag/jock strap.
