Well here's a good story for you guys. First off let me begin by saying I have a hydro setup and am used to this type of harvesting. However, I've never tried outdoor cultivation and need some advice and any extra secrets or personal tips you can throw my way.

So a while back, last year some time, I'm in my parents back yard. They live on a hill so when I say backyard I mean our cement deck. I get a strong odorous wiff of some kind. I'm like "no way" and I start looking around. The smell is eminating from one of the many pots they have strewn around the backyard and is extremely pungeant. It doesn't look to be any kind growing because there is an ordinary plant inside the pot. So I shrug it off thinking that this plant must just smell a lot like kind. Then a couple weeks later I'm hanging out in their back yard again and I catch the same smell so I tell my parents and they assure me it's just a regular plant. Mind you they DON'T smoke or advocate it in any way. I'm like no, this smells just like herb.

Another few weeks goes by until I'm back over again and my Dad tells me some interesting news. He's like, "why don't you go into the backyard. I have something to show you." So I'm thinking, yep I was right. Low and behold is a nice sized herb plant growing in the pot I assured them was kind. I checked out the plant and there were actually 3 of them, and unfortunately it was too late because one of the males germinated the other 2 females and they became hermaphrodites.

So my Dad throws the plants out and I'm like, "damn! If I were only a few days earlier."

Skip ahead to last week. I'm over at my parents house again and I look outside because for some reason I always had a feeling there would be anotehr plant growing in the same pot. YEP! I look over through one of the windows and see this mysterious looking plant growing. I check it out steathily so as to not draw their attention. I devise a plan to take it once they both leave.

Needless to say, I now have a healthy, nice looking female outdoor plant in my backyard. I've been keeping it as healthy as I can with the little knowledge of outdoor cultivation that I know of.

This is where I was hoping you guys could help. I did some research and found a few sites with information but felt that I could get it much more concisely right here.

My specific questions are:
1. How much and how often do I water?
2. What nutrients and how much should I give it?
3. Where can I find those nutrients?
4. How can I keep the plant from not getting to be 4 or 5 feet high?
5. Any other tips, secrets or words of advice would be GREATLY APPRECIATED

Thanks for bearing with my story. It was a shortened version but gives the basics. Pretty trippy but I'm sure as hell not complaining!

Thanks Mom & Dad!!!
