Imagine, if I told you there likely may have been forms of free energy in use all around us at one point in history, and the use of fossil fuels was quite a sinister plan in the long run, but that's a slight deviation/digression from the topic of discussion.

I can't disagree with the logic, and there may not be as huge of a digression as may be apparent. I live in a legal place to grow it outdoors, but the greed of man has made that an impossibility where I reside with my current resources at hand, and if I had the resources to safely do it here, I'd likely move to a safer place to do it with those resources.

Prohibition and the corporate cannabis industry hasn't made it any easier, and there's still plenty of states in this land I reside in where it's flat out illegal to grow it still, even though it's the same country.

In a perfect world I probably would have started off growing weed outdoors, but life did not provide the means for this to happen, but I still became a weed grower with the resources I had at hand, even if it's the lesser desired way to grow, and I can't see this as a bad thing.

I still think what I've gained over the past years growing weed in tents will help me grow weed better outdoors when I start, the same way cycling that bike generator would make you stronger in some ways, and you would be doing the environment a favor by producing that power yourself, Lithium Ion is anything but energy efficient, don't get me started on that one...
