Indoor growing: what is it?

Indoor cultivation is a method used for the production of cannabis and CBD flowers. With this method, CBD and cannabis flowers grow in a completely controlled environment. They benefit from:

• Artificial lighting : the lighting adapts perfectly to the growth rate of the plants, according to their variety and their light requirements, both in duration and intensity.
• A ventilation system is essential: controlling the air inside the grow room is paramount. This ensures that the plants benefit from fresh air, ideal temperature and humidity levels for growth without the risk of mold.
• Protection against climatic hazards and bad weather: beyond the control of parameters, indoor cultivation allows growth sheltered from external conditions that could hinder development and harm the quality of the flowers.

Growing CBD indoors: the advantages

Indoor cultivation is used to produce premium-quality CBD flowers, especially when the plants are grown directly in water using hydroponics. This way, the CBD or cannabis plants are nourished without having to exert any effort. All their energy is focused on flower growth.

CBD produced indoors is:

• Of absolutely remarkable quality : The flowers are very dense, with a high concentration of terpenes and trichomes, resulting in potent effects and perfect aromas. Furthermore, the CBD flowers are aesthetically perfect, without any defects or damaged parts.
• Extremely potent: Absolute control of growth factors allows for the highest possible natural CBD levels (up to 20%), as well as a high concentration of secondary cannabinoids (CBG, CBC, CBN, etc.). These, combined with the high concentration of terpenes and trichomes, result in a pronounced entourage effect and optimal potential.
• Of great purity: Grown in a perfectly controlled environment, indoor CBD requires no pesticides, fungicides or chemical treatments, which could deteriorate the taste of the flowers and pose a risk to the consumer.

 

 

In short, flowers produced indoors are the healthiest, naturally potent and aromatic.

The disadvantages of indoor-grown flowers

As you might expect, this growing method isn't without its drawbacks; otherwise, that's all we'd be producing.
Among the disadvantages is the price of the flowers: total control of the growing environment requires constant monitoring and expensive equipment that consumes a batch of electricity. And as you know, electricity isn't cheap these days.

Fun fact: it is technically possible to grow cannabis or CBD at home indoors, but it's illegal. Many of these illegal growers are caught because of their abnormally high electricity consumption.

 

 

Indoor cultivation compared to other types of cultivation

As mentioned, indoor cultivation is not the only option. There are two other main types of cultivation used: greenhouse cultivation, and outdoor cultivation.

Indoor vs. outdoor growing

Outdoor cultivation is the most widespread: it involves growing crops in fields, such as wheat, corn, soybeans, and all other crops. Its main advantage is that it allows for high yields with little cost and effort.

Unlike indoor cultivation, where the larger the growing area, the more expensive it will be, outdoors, gigantic fields can be grown with relatively little effort compared to a small area.

In fact, CBD flowers grown outdoors are much cheaper than those grown indoors. The price is, on average, four times lower. However, the plants are less attractive, less compact, less aromatic, and less potent. They are therefore generally preferred by consumers who prioritize quantity over quality.

Indoor vs. greenhouse cultivation

Greenhouse cultivation, on the other hand, is the most popular. The plants grow outdoors, but in a greenhouse. This technique is better suited to growing more delicate plants, such as melons or herbs.

It represents a happy medium between outdoor and indoor growing. The plants grow in soil, are protected from the elements, and their environment is partially controlled thanks to the greenhouse.

The CBD flowers produced in this way are offered at an affordable price for a perfectly respectable quality. Some occasional or novice consumers may not perceive the difference between an indoor flower and a good greenhouse-grown one. But where the difference is truly noticeable is in the price: greenhouse flowers are generally half the price of indoor flowers.

In summary: indoors, in a greenhouse or outdoors, what type of cultivation should you choose?

• Outdoor : perfect for small budgets or regular consumers looking for good value for money.
• Greenhouse : the right compromise for those who want quality without breaking the bank.
• Indoor : for discerning enthusiasts seeking powerful aromas, perfect flowers and pronounced effects.
