I have never had everything destroyed.  Some but not all.  It is just so easy outside if you go into it not caring if you lose some.  I would say the biggest disadvantage is that frost picks when they are done.

I can't compare because I never grew inside.  It is why I ask.  I had like five plants blow over and I set them back up and put a metal fence post by them and they all finished.  I got some bud rot from worms but not on every thing.  Mostly though, you get pounds and not rotating smaller amounts for no money.  I really like hearing your experience and thoughts, as I have watched you do both.

That’s why you gotta plan ahead, use posts with netting, BT, and of course, grow more than you will need to account for some inevitable loss. It’s really not hard if you treat it like any other outdoor crop
