what is better for my patients, is better for me, especially because I am a patient myself. And its all free, so my motive is only to provide quality, and it be affordable to produce, not profitable to sell, because that doesn't happen.
Growing outside has given me a more affordable method of production, and the quality remains consistent.
I grew Sensi Star inside, and outside, and put the buds next to each other after mixing them up, and I would give you $100 if you could tell the difference. I could, but only because I watched them grow. Mixed em up in a bag and gave it to the patience, and they had no idea, and yes they grow too. There was a difference in taste. I preferred the taste of the herb I grew outdoors, it was "fuller".
Density, trich coverage, color, look, smell, was all the same. Tasted slightly different, and the stone between the two was different as well. Neither was better IMO, just different.
So much has to do with what happens during harvest and post harvest anyways, and there are so many important confounding variables, that the debate goes on.
But I stand by what I say when I say: "I prefer properly grown and dried outdoor cannabis to equally properly grown indoor cannabis every day of the week."
