Backyard growing

**Stealing** · 06-06-2008, 12:57 PM

Hey guys, I am looking to grow outdoors for several reasons... Greater potency, less electricity cost, kinda self growing - you know?

Well anyway, I live in an urban area, I can walk for an hour in any direction, and not be in any open space, or wilderness of some sort to grow my pot. So the only choice I have is to grow in my backyard. I am a little sketched about this one, it could easily be seen by neighbours, upper windows. I mean I do have a perfect spot for it, my backyard is surrounded by a fence (about 4-5 feet tall), and there is a big tree blocking some sight to my backyard.

I want to grow one afghani plant outdoor (stays quite short and looks more like a bush). I was wondering if there is anything I could plant on either side of it to conceal it better...? Plus any tips on keeping the smell down, or tips to conceal it better?

Thanks guys in advance.

I know lots of people who grow in/around bamboo. Blends in really well, plus, who doesn't like bamboo?

(I hear pandas can be kind of a pest, though)

I put her outside, after germing, shes starting to grow, already at the second or third set of leaves. I will put some plants beside her(nettles if I can get ahold of, or maybe just sunflowers on either side. So I will create a grow journal of this next grow aswell, and keep you guys posted. This is my current grow: My third grow, Afghan weed
