Hey, I recently got roughly 17 seeds and I'm looking to grow. I live in New England, where it's cold until June and the deer thrive, so I have a few questions. I'm going to germinate inside and I'm hoping to grow the rest of the process outside. My 2 outdoors locations are in a treehouse/under my porch. I'm worried about deer needing to get their fix too, hence the locations. If the plants are under my porch will they rank it up? Also will a sled with holes in the bottom filled with planting soil work as a plant pot? Thanks!

If your plants are in a treehouse or under a porch then how is light going to get to them? Please tell me your joking about growing in a sled. You need something deep as the root structure needs space to grow out and down. All the sleds I've ever seen are shallow and would not have enough room for a decent root structure.
The porch is open to the sun, I'd grow near the edge. The treehouse isn't really a house, it's open and plenty of light can get to it. I was curious about the sled.

well some people grow indoors in 5 gallon pails. which arent very big. so if the sled is about as deep as a 5 gallon pail, it should be fine. is the tree house up in a tree? that would be pretty cool to have some plants up there lol

why grow in a treehouse? are you 5? you gotta be 18 to be on this site.
I'm not 5 but I don't live alone, the house came with a treehouse. I don't see why connotations of a treehouse should affect whether or not you can grow in it. It's an open platform in between a few trees that's low enough for me to be able to reach up and put the plants there.
