Why does everyone seem to think Indoor bud is better?

[MDFinest]

Everyone seems to automatically think that indoor bud is better for some reason. I don't see why that'd be true at all. The only advantage I see is environmental control but that's. At the end of the day the potency would still be in the strain would it not. I dont know.. any takes?

I believe most people think hydro is the best, and that's definetly associated with indoor growing. but I personally believe it comes down to the grower and his/her care of the plants, as well as proper harvest and curing.

if you were to grow one strain outdoors and then the same strain indoors which do you think would come out better?

Also, there are the factors including climate/weather conditions of the outdoor grow throughout the season and what strain you choose to grow outside....

My opinion I'd believe you could grow a plant outside better than one inside given conditons are perfect and that you can keep the bugs away! Go ahead and try it and start a log! I will be here till the end

I agree....:thumbsup:...at least you can control the enviroment indoors...:smokin:

I'm going to try it because I don't see an advantage to growing indoors other than environmental control. Since by the time I do get some seeds of the same strain it'll be too late to plant outside I'm going to do it with an autoflowering strain. Next year I'll see if I can do it with a regular one. I honestly believe that natural wind, rain water, and sunlight all would make for a "richer" smoke.

and also I live in Maryland.. which isn't the best outdoor place for growing. I bet no indoor bud would compare to outdoor bud grown in Hawaii or Thailand. LLS. But either way I'm going to go 4 it.

awesome! pls post back your info. I love a good experiment, now if I could just find my damn lab coat! do you guys see it laying around anywhere? LOL

Let's remember that we are talking about hybrids for the most part that were bred to be good indoor producers. Genetics determine thc % not the environment. The only advantage to outdoor growing is larger plants.

[MDFinest]

ok but THC % isnt the only thing that makes bud better IMO.. taste & the TYPE of high are two things that matter to. Personally I feel like outdoors is a much richer environment to grow and bud and it'll show in the finished product. But its only 1 way to find out!

As genetics may determine thc % does not mean that it will be what it says. It is about the envionment. If temps are too high or too humid they may not produce to that potential thc percentile. As you will get much bigger plants outdoors doesn't mean you'll get that 23% thc unless conditions are at its best during the whole year. Just the same for indoors. If your room temps are too high then it won't come out to it's potential thc levels as if it were optimal w/ perfect temps and enough lighting, ph, etc.

I believe most people think hydro is the best,

Faster to harvest...perhaps. Better...no way.
Not everybody likes hydro better, and I definatelly don't consider it the best. I'm one of those that much prefer the flavors and aroma's of soil grown meds...and there is no discernable difference between the two, in regards to the effects.

A lot depends on the grower, his talents, the quality of his/her genetics, the nutes and medium...But it's just plain easier to grow indoors. No nosy neighbors. No insect problems, no vermin or deer chewing on it, no hail storms, no street lights screwing with light schedules, no flooding or drought...
