when growing plants outside does it matter if you plant the seeds in a pot or dig a hole and put new soil and seeds into it?? which one do you think would be better off??
If you're able, I'd plant it directly into the ground. There's more room for the roots to grow and get nutrients and the plants tend to grow a lot bigger that way. On the other hand, if you want to be able to move them quickly or control the amount of water and light they get, pots are the answer. It just depends on how you want to grow, really.
I would start it in pots in or near your house till about 1 weekish then watch the area you want to plant it in for any intruders. when you know its secure plant in ground.
