i agree if your outdoor bud sucks your not doing it right...end of conversation.

IF you only want to grow one or two plants in a bedroom closet maybe but I can tell you from first hand experience moving plants outside from inside the development of the plant is very much stronger and faster. I moved seedlings in 32 oz styro cups from my inside grow room outside a few months ago(when we had a nice 10 day stretch of weather) and I was stunned by their development over that week, in just a few weeks they doubled in size and in fact were two feet tall when I transplanted them, TWO feet tall in styro cups. Within a few weeks of transplant most were already larger then the indoor crop I just harvested.
Like I said, if you're only option is to grow inside then so be it but if I had a choice I'd choose outside every time. I don't really see an advantage to feeding plants inside or outside if they are in containers, the feeding would be pretty much the same. You have an advantage over pests but that isn't difficule to manage outside unless you have a very large number of plants. Then you have to factor in your power consumption and time, I find it takes a lot more work to nurture an indoor crop, the 24 hour lighting can raise suspicion, the heat build up can be a real problem and there have been numerous house fires reported from indoor grow operations.
not to mention your root zone is virtually unlimited. soil dependent of course. if i could hide an acre outside id charge for corn maze fun. you call it maize i call it cannabis:D
