depends where you live i would never recomend putting it outside unless you live in the country ( also might not be the proper season for you to be florwering where you live ) to answer your other question yes order from Nirvana you wont get arrested worst case scenerio they confiscate your order and send you a letter telling you such also explaining that you can refute it if you go to their office. ( DONT do that ) and you are all good they don't care enough to do anything but take it unless your ordering like 1000 + at a time
