 Green Crack or Maui Wowee

I am looking into growing my own plant outdoors (Live in Central/Southern CA) and wanted to get 3 clones from my local dispensary.
Should I go with 3 Green Crack (5$) or 3 Maui Wowee ($15) or a mix of the two?
What do you guys/gals think?
Some other advise:
Also I have done some reshearch on outdoor cultivation and have found that many people hate Miracle Grow yet love Fox Farm (Ocean Forest)for their plants, so my qustions is what is Miracle Grow lacking?

Miracle Grow is designed for common house plants and vegetables in mind. Fox farm is designed with cannabis in mind. Aeration, nutrient content, and soil quality are the more obvious reasons why fox farm works better. Another potential issue with miracle grow is the way nutrients are added, IME by time release pellets mixed in the soil. This would make it difficult to remove all the nutrients in the plants towards the end of the cycle.

Why are nutrients bad during flowering? Is that how nutrition burn occurs?

Closetgrower is correct.
Nutrients are needed during flowering. What Closetgrower is saying is that you may have a difficult time flushing
(removing nutrient salts) at the end of your grow when using MG.
Flushing is very important to your final product. So, Miracle Grow might not be your best growing medium.

Ok, that makes sense about the salt build up if that is what he implied. I got Fox Farm Ocean Forest the other day so I am looking forward to a better growing experience than Miracle grow gave me.
I don’t believe that I have heard anything about flushing the soil during flowering, so what do you mean by that “moongles”?
The nerve of some people.......went to the club the other day to pick up the advertised green crack and Maui W. but someone bought out all 25 clones!!!!!WTF

This is why we have a 15 clone cap at our dispensary.
Flushing is done near the end of flowering. Some growers flush one or two weeks before harvest.
You can use plain old H20 or products like Florakleen by GH.
The point of the flush is to remove said salts so that the end product is something you WANT to smoke/ingest.
To put it simply: Flowers that have not been properly flushed taste horrible and are very harsh on your throat/lungs.

what a lazy guy, why would you need to buy 25 clones? just buy one or two and then take your own!

Who knows what his/her intentions are with those 25 plants.
One could hope they would be spreading around the genetics 
Some people just love weed and buy it all up! 
On the flip side, there are millions of cuttings out there. Keep searchin!

I think my point still stands though; if they truly wanted to spread the genetics of the plant they would only buy one clone so the rest are available to others, and then they can grow that plant large enough to take 25 of their own clones and pass those around.

In my opinion the only reasonable answer to why someone would take more than 10 clones is most likely due to a guerilla grow or due to inexperience...
