outdoor medical grow

Anyone know if a "screenhouse" is sufficient under mass law to grow outdoors(assuming it has a lock )??

I am not sure if Mass Law states the status of growing outdoors yet. I can tell you from my experience, in RHode island, you cannot grow outdoors, and for a screened greenhouse to be able to work, it has to be attached to the building. However, why grow outdoors? Don't harvest once, maybe twice a year. Harvest more than 12 times a year with perpetual harvests.

well....Im thinking outdoor because for one There is nothing better than the sun as far as light goes. #2 I wont have extreme costs of electricity. #3 when I do have extreme humidity, I can always pick up the pots and move them to my indoor grow room that I haven't used for a longgg time. I do hear you about the indoor growing because of multiple crops. but for me its either outdoor or nothing.

To each his own. Everyone I have encountered prefers indoor medicine than outdoor. I don't mean to offend, but the general consensus on outdoor growing is "the lazy mans grow", where as indoors is "Clean Medicine". I can only suggest to stay classy and stay indoors.

can 10 oz last you a year? if you can grow out door you cant grow more than 10 oz, from my understanding you really only get 1 harvest when growing outdoors. Even if you get multiple harvests in the late summer you can only have 10oz at one time. So if you refuse to grow indoor you will have to buy your meds in when you run out of your outdoor grow stuff... which will cost more then growing indoors.

Outdoor growing is a great way to produce hash and is in no way the lazy way out. Its way harder especially when its a gorillagrow and you have to carry everything in and out by foot. The sun has a special way of growing some very high quality cannabis that indoor gardens cannot recreate, but in the northeast its very hard to battle the negative environmental factors.

hmm good point, though, a technically a patient is only allowed to have 10 oz of dried bud, yes? Now I'm thinking, I can grow outdoors and then grow indoors too.

Bringing plants indoors after they have been outside is sketchy. You will be exposing your girls to all the bugs in your yard, then bringing them in. I watched a grown man cry trying this method

Oh boy....I encounter this indoor/outdoor bias all the time.
My outdoor produced 6lb--on 6plants. My patients are quite happy with the meds.
as far as clean....my plants are as "clean" as you can get. I do not even use neem or molasses.I love seeing that neem shine on all the plants as I am being told how "clean" a particular indoor is...
I think the indoor bias is partially to justify the production costs....by the by...my production costs are less than $5/oz [not including labor].

Im inside all winter, outside all summer. I get more bud outside, and it seems to produce better hash. Where I am, the summer bugs are nasty. I get all my young girls ready to go outside by July the latest. Once they leave my controlled space, they never return.

i then shut everything down and scrub a dub dub.

i wasn't trying to pick a fight, just share my exp. sorry if you got threatened ......

No..not threatened at all. sorry if I gave that impression. Outdoor has gotten a "bad name" sort of. I don't much care if it is in or out. Does it work? That is the important part.

I would not mix outdoor plants with indoor plants by bringing them in like that. You will be introducing the potential for bug infestation and what ever else the plant was exposed to outside will be spread to your clean indoor environment. That is just my opinion n how I treat my indoor garden.
