I can't wait to grow a few plants outside. I might this year if I get a chance and depending on where I move. Last year I grew one plant outside a townhouse (gotta have balls! to do this). The plant got huge and even topped it a few times. It turned out to be a male when it started flowering so I chopped him. I might give it a shot this year again. I've been reading the book Marijuana Outdoors: Guerilla Growing by Jorge Cervantes. Not to bad of a book so far.
