I agree...plant them away from the creek bank. The feeder roots will seek and spread to a shallow level and find that ground moisture. Any closer will run the risk of flood wash and all your efforts will end up on CNN with some stupid kid holding on for dear life to your plants. I personally would want the youth to die instead of ruinning a good grow!

The soil around the creek bank will be holding enough moisture to maintain your grow. But yet nutes will be needed...and you must also consider the soil type your planting in!
BudE714 Reviewed by BudE714 on . outdoor method I was planning my outdoor grow for next year and have found an excellent spot near a small stream. Is it possible to plant close enough to the stream so that watering will not be necessary? I know I will need to feed them but if I dig down to water level and fill the hole with soil will the water leach up and keep my plants alive? Also if my plants will be ready to harvest in say oct. 15th and a frost comes on oct. 1st will my plants need to be harvested or will they survive that and Rating: 5
