Since there is a vast number of choices to select from in a rec state, I've developed a strong preference for outdoor grown.
Taste is superior IMO. Like hot house tomatoes vs. garden fresh..not nearly as pretty, but just as flavorful. More honest....along the lines of what I remember 'weed' looking and smelling like (minus the skunk) Perhaps an acquired taste tho.
Cost...often because of looks I assume. The more flavorful but ugly apples of cannabis. It seems that a lot of the high-end stuff goes for the cookies, cake and cream appeal. Not that sweets are bad but I can't believe there is enough there to justify the premium price for the day-to-day material.
It's kind of cool to run across the older school stuff that cycles thru the shops. Got some Jack Herrer and White Widow in the can last summer. Both lower grade outdoor grown stuff very reasonably priced = sold out quick.
Often locally sourced and outdoor grown equals perhaps less stress on the environment and good for the economy.
Seasonal, so what is available is usually fresh and lab certified.
