true, those are the risks of outdoor grows. just plant them in a spot where they get about 5 hours of direct morning sunlight, then indirect sunlight in the afternoon when it is hottest. obviously you cant control heavy rains but lack of rain is easily remedied. just water them every 4 days or so that there isnt any rain. another important element of outdoor growing is pest control - chicken wire or human hair/urine to keep away deer and bunny wabbits, plus weekly sprayings of neem oil to keep the bugs away.
