I'm curious to know what you are all using or what kind of setups you have for your outdoor growing? Last year my collection was small enough I'd bring them inside every night. Thanks

I just leave mine outside all year round on a spare little table I had. In the heat of summer, I try and give them a place where they get shade, and in the rainy season some shelter. They have done pretty well outside, catch plenty of food. Depends where you live though. I live in South Spain so that's growing zone 10, but we have a micro-climate that has a big effect also and gives us a bit of a subtropical ...errr, thingy.
