Well there is a difference between growing a little, also growing inside and outside is a major difference.
Going all hydroponic with 600watt lights, ventilation and various groth hacking is a third and totally different way. I alwaays have 3-5 plants in the house, all year. They smell A LOT, so lemonhaze is a good smelling plant, where as OG kush is not so nice odor for many visitors. My fav strain is white widow.
