you can grow good bud outdoors. and indoor stuff doesn't have to be that expensive we have come a long ways on energy efficient lighting.

some are some arent. I'm the pickh type but i have plenty of friends that aren't into the details of it. then you have the edible and derivative markets which care about potency not looks.

You can absolutely grow it outdoors. Of course, the security of growing outdoors is a lot harder. And considering that a well grown plant can fetch $2000+, you have to have security.

I am incredibly picky. I only smoke organic 100% indica plants grown in soil. I have friends that aren't picky but they still look for the frosted nugs. They do care about potency though, which even grown outside requires a lot of attention to detail.

A lot of the derivative market comes from trimming though. Or the buds that weren't sellable as bud.

Maybe shitty outdoor grown weed, which is what I think mass farming would produce, will fly in some parts of the country. But I think if consumers tried the higher quality stuff, they would select that.
