yeah find a spot, thats no.1 (except potting the seeds). prepare it until you think its ready, add soil/fert mix, plant out. keep an eye on them for a few weeks till they settle, and start showing that they have settled to there new homes.
then kick back and watch the magic show. oh and obviously keep on top of insects and other animals like rabbits and deer.
put cages around your plants about 2 foot wide to stop rabbits,
put copper tape around the bottom to stop slugs, and
piss around your site to stop deer ( not near you rplants)
hope this helps CANNABLISS
