GOD a dit:
The light out doors is a different spectrum and is constantly changing so is the temperature and the humidity . The grass indoors gets to hot.
In the last couple of years, Europe was subject to droughts, floods and other unpredictable weather conditions. While a good indoor grower keeps his plants at a 23-28° C during day and 15-18° C at night with proper climate control...
BrainEater a dit:
my theory is: the weed plants growing under the "real sun" are happier and therefore provide a better high, as they can process water,light, etc more effectively, because of their happiness........ imagine the radiation that travelled for millions of kilometres originating in a star and the difference to the radiatiation of a 600W (or maybe more?) lamp...
And then think about the creative energy humans have spent the last thousands of years until being able to manufacture a 600W HPS lamp. That should count for something too
I think that the care you put into your plants is the most important. Trying to make their life as good as possible, to treat them like lovers.
Most outdoor growers don't tend to their gardens as much as indoor growers. And if something happens, the plants are left to themselves.
Sure, if you happen to live in a good climate, and can openly care for your outdoor garden. I would go outdoor too. But the reality (for most) is, that cannabis is illegal and guerrilla outdoor growing can be very dangerous and does not yield what one expects.
I am going to try a few things soon which includes climatic control to simulate nature as good as possible. I don't mind the plants to take longer to grow. So I will induce flowering slowly by reducing the light over a period of time. I will also make changes to temperature and humidity as well as to light.
I will try different light setups, including a UV-B lamp with a timed dimmer set to the noon of the day to slowly rise the UV amount for a short period. Things like that.
Truth is (and GOD said so already) there are almost no natural or original strains out there. Actually the only one will be wild cannabis somewhere in Mongolia...
Humans used cannabis for so long now, that it has to be considered a cultivated plant. And as with other cultivated plants, it's the amount of care you put into them, that makes them good. Using modern ways does not diminish this fact. And I consider it an essential part of our overall evolution to learn to integrate nature into technology and vice versa... My reality makes me believe that the path of consideration, compassion, consciousness, responsibility is the right one and it is made of true balance.
