about The Outside grow!!!

I'm going to start growing this summer, and I'm definitely doing it outdoors. . Less likely to get caught and they can't really prove it's yours if they do catch you near it.
Kindbud
05-24-2006, 07:09 PM
Yeah Thats a big thing for me to if they catch
you with it in your house your busted!! And their
Is nothing!! you can say eather Outside You can
say "Thats not mine!!!!!! I have Never smoked or
growed pot in my life how dare you accuse me of
growing marijuana" And plus plants outside usally
get bigger then indoor plants.
Yes, I do miss the OD grow. but keep in mind. I can have a harvest every two months...opposed to once a year. :D

Inside. You grow your once-a-year crop if you want, and yes you may have some amazing looking plants, but I'd rather do that all year round, inside. Outdoor growing for me is a side project. I prefer to grow inside because I know my plants won't get ripped off, and because I can control exactly what goes into those plants, and also I can control the climate of my indoor grow to a certain extent.

Ok KB, you got my attention. Yes OD gives big yeilds. Yes I grew OD for years. Yes OD is harder to bust...until your carrying a pound or so through the woods into your car and driving home. Now how stealth is that???
Indoor...lets see big yeilds. I can give you quite a few links where they are pumping out 6 oz. per plant ID. Every 2-3 months. off 2-3 plants. but does it matter?
Whats better???
Neither one. they both have drawbacks and upsides to them both. this is a no win poll. It don't matter whats better. What matters is that we all try to do whats best for each of us. It doesn't matter what yeild or who has the best and biggest grow. All that matters is we are all doing something we love. Grow some herb, make new freinds, and share information. It doesn't matter.... Do a poll like what strain releives your ailment, or something.
Get Hick and Ganja, both of em have or currently grow both ID and OD. They won't argue with this. Its a pointless debate.

First off for some people like me they dont have
to carry a pound through the wood becuse they
live right by their plants less then 150 yards away

There are many advantages to growing outside.
It would cost thousands of $ to rig up an indoor grow where you could end up with let's say 50 pot plants, all 6'--7' tall, each with over a pound of buds.
It would cost thousands more to put a trout stream in nearby where you could catch your dinner and cook it over a campfire.
Most everyone lives within an hours drive of the mountains or boonies. Add a hours hike--there ya go!
Hiking is good exercise too.
More pot, better health--sounds good to me.

Inside growing.
Both have their qualities, both have advatages and disadvantages. It is nothing more than a matter of "personal" preferrence. I wouldn't want to lose either one.
The OD gives me the oppurtuntiy to utilize the most ideal growing environment available, free of charge. On the other hand, ID allows "me" to be Mother Nature.(you should see me in drag ;)) provideing, or depriveing anything at anytime.
OD allows me to roam around the woods, experience happenings and solitude that can no way be mimmicked in the ID garden, but a single hailstorm or early/late freeze can mean total loss.
Indoor allows me to control, experiment and breed in an environment that "I" choose. When I want, how I want.

Yeah, you OD guys can have your 'once a year OD grows', but me, I'm much more happy to grow year-round, indoors, while also having my 'once a year' outdoor crop ;)
But you guys are certainly right about the cost effectiveness, in that way nothing will ever touch OD growing, but as for growing bigger plants, more yield? That depends on the specific grow.

Sure you can get some nice indoor buds, but I still think the average grower is going to end up with bigger yeilds with a well planned outdoor grow.

Personally, I prefer to grow indoors, because I can control things much more. I don't have to worry about piggies flying over, or nosy neighbors and the nasty little rippers. Indoors I control heat, light, water and air flow. I live where I can only do one grow outdoors per year, indoors I can do a continuous harvest grow and always have something new to add to the mix...i.e. new seeds or new clones from my other grow buds. So I grow indoors 8 months of the year, then move a couple of plants outside, stealthily LST'd, in the briars and brambles...and worry constantly during those few months of summer alot more than I do while growing indoors.
Peace...j.b.

i do agree with mutt on this tho it shure would **** to be pulled over driving home with 6 pounds of weed and plants in your trunk
True. I take a big chance twice a year. Once when I set them out (I start all mine indoor) and once when I pick them up. IMO, you're taking a much bigger chance growing indoor because you have pot growing in your house year round. I'm not perfect, I get in trouble from time to time. I get in a fight, guys goes to the cops and gets a warrant on me. The cop stops by the house to serve the warrant, and say someone lets him in or anything is out of place. He can get a search warrant and bam there I go. I also have parties at my house....A LOT. There are people that I trust and then there are PEOPLE THAT I TRUST. The second group is very few and far between. If someone saw something out of place or smelled something then they could go to the cops. I'm wayyyyyy too paranoid for that. But, I'm not going to keep people from coming over because I want to grow weed indoors. It seems kind of reclusive to me.
Also, someone on the last page that it can be done just as good indoor as outdoor and posted a picture of a room full of GREAT looking plants. Those were just as good as outdoor gets for sure. This guy probably had an initial investment of a thousand dollars on lights alone, not to mention ventilation, cooling systems, etc. What about that light bill? On the light calculator it was a little over $50 a month for 1-1000watt HPS. It would take 4 or more to do a "full size" grow room.
Basically, like everyone said it comes down to personal preference. Some people like to be able to look in their closet and see their plants. Some people like to go out and enjoy nature.
I'm an indoor guy.
If you have a small grow, stay inside. The electric company is not going to alert the police over a $50 increase in your bill. I'd never go over 1500 watts inside, you're asking for trouble. If you have an unfinished basement or an out building that's secluded you're much more secure inside.
If you want a big grow, go outside. You're much safer there than having four or five lights. If you want 50 7' tall plants that produce a pound each, stay outside.

01-19-2008, 02:51 PM
Both have advantages
Indoors you have tight control of your micro-climate but you can't replicate sun light
Outdoors you get great weight ,which you don't get indoors (poundage vs. ounceage ) But it's much more of a crap shoot.Animals are a real problem both the four legged and two legged kind. I've lost as many as I've brought home . Then of course there's the adrenaline rush you get with every snap of a twig in the underbrush.
I love em both can I vote twice?

There are many advantages to growing outside.
It would cost thousands of $ to rig up an indoor grow where you could end up with let's say 50 pot plants, all 6'--7' tall, each with over a pound of buds.
It would cost thousands more to put a trout stream in nearby where you could catch your dinner and cook it over a campfire.
Most everyone lives within an hours drive of the mountains or boonies. Add a hours hike--there ya go!
Hiking is good exercise too.
More pot, better health--sounds good to me.
What kinda grow you talkn bout? You can get started with a coulple hundred bucks, or u can get somthin descent for a little over a thousand. Everything in my room can be bought for under 1500. and I`m gettin HAlf LB a plant.INSIDE. I get well over a pound a plant outside but the potency cant be compared to the indoor.

I vote indoor for harvesting every two months and safety for myself and my plants.
I agree with Insane... because I spent a year and all my savings on my last outdoor grow in the 90s and got ripped off by a neighbor who was also a grower. (I was on a mountain top near my own property). There is no safe place unless you want to guard it 24/7.
After that horrible experience I have never grown outdoors except as a hobby in the back yard.
I have to admit, Outdoor is much more fun though if you can be safe... I miss riding my horse to my patches. Good memories, very good. Lots of fun. Especially outrunning/riding CAMP here in California when they were attacking with helicopters. Very exciting indeed! Now its legal to grow a few here so it's much better... but the high excitement is gone. LOL
