and with where to grow, thats like picking a lesser evil. you want vegetation so you can hide the plants, but at the same time the protection means you get less light than an open field, so your going to have to find a medium that works for you.
and sometimes, especially in the south, if you plant too close to a river you might have to worry about flooding.
hope this helped, and good luck to you.
