After much thought and consideration I think I've finally found a way to put my plants outside my window without the fear of them falling off. I used the two pots the plants originally came in and some command strips.

The command strips are very strong and the plants are rather light, I'm hoping the combination of the two will keep the setup going atleast for a bit while I figure something else out.

Ha. Where there's a will there's a way. Not only will they get direct sun they will also get lit up on the the backside by the window reflection. Just don't forget to water them often or they will be toast.
