#1 a pot is going to reduce your bounty potential. I'd plant them in the ground in your temperate area, put a heat-tape on it and cover the plant in frost cloth.. 15' x 20' can cover a good mat.. All you need is a long stick and covering is pretty easy.. I use a zip strip to close the top of my frost cloth, then drape it around the mat, you can stake the bottom but a couple rocks helps keep it in place.. On the vertical seem I use office clamps.. Heat-tape will keep it from freezing no matter what kind of weather blows in.. :^)
