Quality?

It makes no sense to me that outdoor would be worth half of what indoors. From my experience most outdoor has better smell but maybe not appearance but definitely not worth Half. Someone with experience went to elaborate a little bit? Sorry for my ignorance but I'm new to growing.

Who ever told you that was completely wrong.

I'll put some of my outdoor up against indoor any day of the week
I don't buy into that debate

It's all in the beholder. If I had an excess of outdoor I prefer to get rid of it quickly with one deal. Make less for the weight but far less risky than nickel and dimeing it. As far as gram for gram I believe outdoor has the same value as indoor.
