naw i just saw something on tv where they rigged a plant up to a polygraph, beat the shit out of it and got a reaction, and then they thought mean thoughts and got a reaction. so my theory is, out door plants do better because you are not near them when you are thinking of smoking the bud, but indoor plants are likely close enough to detect your thoughts of harming them. but dude im really high but i think i am right on this. if you think of peace and tranquility near your green little buddy, you'll get some killer bud and lots of it.
