Is it that much better? The flower I get is pretty fresh
You’re in Arizona with a bunch of hydro grows, so not likely. It’s really only noticeable when the local bud is predominantly from outdoor crops…. It is a bunch of fun to grow though 😊
Most of what we have here is indoor.
Right, probably a mix of hydro and potted indoor grows. They’re almost all probs well sealed and atmo regulated so not a lot of contaminants to infiltrate the bud. Aka, in your area unless you want to grow for the joy of it it may not be worth it.
However!!! You should totally start a micro grow in a red solo cup and post updates :) you can clean metadata from the photo by texting it to yourself in the Signal messenger app if you’re worried about that. Otherwise, good luck and great bud!
I have no idea how your plants will turn out?
Me neither. I have no experience with this. What do you specifically get from each plant? How tall are they?
I think you will get better advice from one of the serious weed communities. I garden for the joy of it and don't keep logs of yields.
This is my first indoor grow. The plants are maybe 4 ft now? The medium and size of the container will impact the height, as will the strain and any supplemental nutrients you add. I trimmed these a lot to promote air flow. Don't know if that impacts the height.
Outdoor grows are highly variable. Strain is a big one, but even different locations in the yard that appear to get the same amount of light get different results. Your location will impact it in terms of hours of sun and if you can do more than one planting per year. I don't normally fertilize outdoors beyond some of our own compost and some kelp/alfalfa meal in the spring. Unless they look sad. It's on vibes. I've had plants well over 6' outdoors.
Thanks
