Once sprouted I will plant the seeds. I have no where to grow them inside first.

1. Would it be good to plant near a spring fed stream.
2. How real is the possibility of having the plants spotted from the air.
3. Is it realistic to think I can grow 1-2lbs with a budget of ~$600.
4. I will be planting at my cabin which is 2 hours away from my house, i will only be able to tend to them for 3 days every other week. Will I still be able to grow them?
5. Should I grow them outside in planters or in the ground? Or start in planters outside and then transplant them into the ground?
6. What should I do to defend against deer and rabbits. (very abundant populations of both where I will be planting.)
7. What will be the best seeds to buy for decent quality but mostly quantity? Can you put a link to a place they can be bought.
8. The ground where I will be planting is a little rocky, will i need to buy soil?
9. I figure I will want to kill all other vegetation around where I am going to be planting, how much of an area around each plant should I clear.
10. How far should I space out the plants.
11. Any other tips will be greatly appreciated.
ill help ya out man

1. yes but not to close if it floods your plants will be in danger

2. ah well it depends on how many plants your planning on growing if only like 2 or 3 plants its low but if a lot in one small area then very high

3. uh yeah id say that you could grow 1- 2 pounds with less then half of 600 bucks so if your budget is 600 then you are in the clear

4. yes unless you are in a very dry and hot climate then you may need to fix a watering device to keep them happy till you can come back the next week

5. well it id say start them off in planters and then put them into the ground

6. up pee areound the area haha umm try chicken wire but spray paint it camo first once they get about 3 to 4 feet the rabbits and deer should not be such a big threat

7. well just search the forum and im sure you will find out what your looking for i cant answer this for ya sorry

8. it depends it would prob be wise to dig a hole and fill it with potting soil

9. well its good to clear it a little but you dont want a spot that can be spotted from above by tha choppers

10. 3 to 4 feet apart from each plant in one patch is good if your growing a large number of plants i would plant them in patches like 3 here 3 there about 50 to 100 yards apart

11. ah make sure you plant them where they get at least 5-6 hours of good sunlight and kill all male plants that you end up with they are no good.
