Smoking your own herb is amazing man you will probly get the highest you have ever been when you smoke the first dry buds of your harvest I know I sure did. It feels great to create your own weed from seeds.
Your spot sounds pretty good to me but you just gotta make sure you dont leave any trails to it through out the season. Ive also read somewhere that the plants do best when they get more direct sunlight in the morning than the afternoon/evening. Last season I grew by a swamp and it worked great I used the plain native soil that was there and planted them about 10 feet away from the water. I went to the plants about once a week and gave them nutes if they needed it and just made sure they were ok and they grew about 8 feet tall. This year I plan on planting in that spot again but im only going to go there every 2 weeks to a month this season because my trail got really noticable in the fall last season. My plants didnt smell to bad from a distance you should be good if there 100 yards away. I would plant them directly in the ground if I were you. Most nutrients that ive seen have a table on the back that tells you how much to add to the water so its easy to get the right mixture.
Good luck on your grow and welcome to the forum
