Outdoor-Grown

Outdoor flower grows in open fields on the sun’s schedule: one main harvest, full weather exposure, the lowest production cost of the three tiers. The product is typically less dense and less visually refined, with more seasonal variation — and it can still test perfectly well, which is why outdoor smalls are often the cheapest legitimate THCA per dollar on the market. The failure mode to avoid is paying a greenhouse price for an outdoor product, which is where honest tier labeling matters. Priced honestly, outdoor is not a compromise; it is the budget lane working as intended.
