Greenhouse (glasshouse) CBD flower is grown in a protected structure where plants still get real sunlight — but with extra shelter and control. Think of it as the middle lane between outdoor fields and full indoor setups.
A greenhouse helps growers:
Use natural sunlight (great for plant expression)
Protect crops from extreme weather
Manage humidity/temperature better than outdoors
That often means stronger terps than outdoor, better consistency, and lower costs than indoor.
Greenhouse CBD is perfect if you want proper aroma and flavour, care about quality but don’t want indoor prices every time, and like the “sun-grown, but looked after” idea. It’s often the best value-per-gram lane for terp lovers.
Indoor: most control, most polish, often highest price
Greenhouse: balanced quality/value, real sun + protection
Outdoor: most natural, most variable, usually cheapest
Rotate based on budget and mood — no rules.
Is greenhouse “mid-tier” by default?
Not at all. Some greenhouse grows are insanely dialled in.
Does greenhouse smell as loud as indoor?
It can get very close — especially with good curing and storage.
Is greenhouse better than outdoor?
If you want reliability and nicer visuals, usually yes.
Best use case for greenhouse CBD?
Everyday flower when you still want terps and a solid look.
