Growbox outside?!
i guess this goes here.... i dunno. but i was thinking about growing this summer. problem is i'm gonna be home from school. i have a shit load of woods behind my house. the natural outdoor growing of cannabis would be impossible in these woods, not enough light. plus it needs to be stealthed. so my idea is posted below in the picture. it's a rubbermaid grow box, but outside! in a hole!
my only concerns are ventalation, temperature, and humidity. i'll surely be doing some tests before i actually start to grow my baby. maybe you can give me some insight or some ideas on how to make this work.
again, here is my 'blueprint' if you will.

where would you get the power for the extension cord? a nearby house? what happens when it rains? bugs going through exhaust? it could possibly work but i think finding a place outdoors without the box would be a whole lot easier, theres bound to be atleast one good spot in your woods

Growbox outside?!
yes, there is an extended outlet near the woods from my house.
I have it in the key there, i have a tarp to block water from getting into the box, also for the carbon filter. which i hope, the carbon filter will kill 2 birds, carbon filter the intake and keep bugs out. but i have no idea for the exhaust, maybe make a screen so nothing can get in. the brown lines over the box and carbon filter intake are piece of wood i'll have propped up to act as roofs.
i'd like to have it in a box, stealthed so that it's hidden from view. also it's on my propherty so nobody should be lurking around there anyway, but i don't have any great fencing, just some cheap wiring.
where i live it gets very humid in the summer. would that affect the growth if it's underground in a box?

yes humidty would be a problem, too much of it in flower could cause mold

would a good circulation of air flow prevent molding?

eh. well i guess this is the wrong forum then, i'll take it to indoor. because it uses CFL lights, thats what the extension is for.
it's an indoor growbox that'll be sitting outside basically in a hole.
i have to revise the plan anyway. i did something wrong, the carbon filter should be connected to the exhaust, not the intake.

well you dont really need a carbon filter at all if its outside....its open air, the smell will be very miniscule(sp?), unless you had like tons of plants
