An interesting point came up in conversation online with a dude talking about his adventures in pressing Rosin with a pneumatic press. He said:
"One other thing to consider, depending on what you're pressing and where it came from on the plant , we have seen major differences depending whether indoor or outdoor grow. often times the indoor will produce higher yields the closer to the top of the plant you are pressing and as you get to the bottom of the plant the yields start to decrease significantly. we have determined on our end that the bottom of the plant doesn't get as much light as the top of the planet therefore it's not producing as much sap. however in the outdoor, the sun seems to hit just about everything and it's oftentimes very consistent from top to bottom of the plant , however the overall yield from the outdoor it isn't as high as the highest yield from the indoor."

The physics add up wrt to the dudes speculation regarding light at least... :)
