I have fencing around mine that keeps anything larger than a rat out of there when you grow outdoors there will be pests but there are natural predators ladybugs do a nice job of keeping them clean some praying mantis around is good so if you plant outside try to include some marigolds around them a lot of bugs don't like the smell whiteflies love them and live on those the marigolds don't care they just keep growing they will nibble on your plants but they wont make your plant homeThanks sticky
Good to know they only need 6-7 hours of direct light I think they will get that and a fair bit more. Maybe 8-9 hours of direct light.
I’ll throw something out there this spring. I have hardly any experience growing outside well. Sorta worried about pests. Animals etc. There’s a ton of rabbits. Skunks and stuff in my neighbour hood and they eat up my neighbours veggie garden pretty well.
I wouldn’t mind using a 15-30gal pot and have a little dolly to move it inside during the night. It would suck to move it everyday but I would like to know it’s safe at night too.
Our next house has to have a backyard so I can get a greenhouse lol. Wife wants a jacuzzi tub I want the backyard. SW exposure would be ideal.
