How To Cut The Risk

There are some risk when growing an outdoor marijuana crop and some steps that can be taken to cut the risk as much as possible since it is partly Mother Nature that it will need to be protected from also.

The first way to protect the crop and cut the risk is to plant the pot seedlings in an area where detection will be difficult and this includes by plane. This is one of the ways many crops are found, by authorities using planes to search for crops, or by someone else flying even for enjoyment that takes it upon them self to report the crop to the authorities.

The second risk is letting anyone know where the crop is located, there are people that would wait for the weed to be ready to harvest and then steal the mature plants.

The third risk is protecting the seedlings and the growing plants from Mother Nature, this in some cases is almost impossible, weather is out of the grower’s control. During the growth of the cannabis if it is a dry growing season then watering the plants will be necessary. Putting a fence around the plants can keep out larger animals such as dear and if it is a closely gauged fencing it can keep smaller critters out, such as chipmunks, rabbits and rodents. To battle bugs that can attack the plants there are many things that can be used including steel wool for cut worms, placed around the bottom of the plants.
