Instead of saying "Grow somewhere else" or anything like that, tell him info that he could use for his underground construction.
If I was you, I would build a rectangle frame going around the hole with 2x4's then put a small stake or some re-bar in each corner, then lay the tarp in the hole (What about weather stripping for a sealant) and attach the tarp to the wood to create the walls and ground. Then get your plywood to fit on top of the 2x4's and attach tarp to the bottom of the plywood so you have a fully sealed area from the tarp. Make some holes where necessary and use some sealant on those if you want to really control it. I'll post a picture soon.
Personally I would rather put a steel shipping container where I live instead of doing a stealth grow in my attic but after digging 4" with a shovel I hit red clay, the thing Native Americans loved and I now hate.
Its too hard to draw what I'm talking about, but I think you can get the idea. Make it so the tarp goes above ground so rainwater won't flood in. You could get something that sticks on 2 sides, some weatherstripping for windows or something. Make sure to seal between the 2x4s and the tarp. I don't know how much hinges and latches cost, but you could put hinges on 1 side, then have a latch on the other side to secure the top. If you want to really seal it good, put some more weather stripping on bottom of the plywood too.
wow. thanks you Dr. Hash!! i guess the sealing of the box is more important than i thought. and i get what your saying. excellent idea! :thumbsup:
like i mentioned this is a experiement so far. if it works perfectly i'll have a "graveyard" of these underground grow boxes by next year. WOO WEEE WOW WEEEE! VERRRY NICE!
*Borat's voice* Very Nice! High Five!
What I need to figure out is how can I grow outside when it gets to 120F. I live in the desert and it gets really hot during the summer. I was thinking I could do the underground box with some Lowryders in them, but I think even underground would be too hot.
I love the idea, You should check out the burried shipping crate grow over at International Cannagraphic forums

This guy does amazingly awsome setups. Just mimic him to a very small scale.

Talk about stealth man I heard this guy that had some kind grow room in a underground basement in his yard the trap door was hid under his pet bulls dog house lol
