Hey, Do you guys think that digging a deep

hole in the ground putting some plants in

there (with new soil) and then covering it

with clear plastic would be able to grow. Let

me know what you think about this idea.

it'd have to be a pretty deep hole because it'd need room to grow and might not get as much light as a plant above ground level but I guess it's possible

What is the purpose of doing it that way? If its for stealth your drawing more attention then if they were planted regularly..

Um..just a few first thoughts after reading the plan-- A: Build up of oxygen and CO2 emissions unless you poke holes into plastic cover. B: Depleted rainwater (roots may be able to get rainwater from ground not covered by your plastic--also can be fixed by poking holes)

i dont think it would work well because i dont think the light would be very good at all, you would only get good light at noon and the rest of the day would be poor light in that hole. also no circulation. also not very discreet. also... i dont know i just dont think it would be very good. a better idea is to bury a storage container or a bus even

One thing to keep in mind though if you're burying a bus - make sure you remember to empty all the kids out of it first. I forgot that step once, and I still kick myself over it sometimes. Thank god they were all really young, so their parents hadn't really had time to develop strong attachments to them yet, but still - I felt kinda shitty about it a couple of weeks later when I realized what I'd done.

I know someone who had thier plants in pots in a hole in his yard. So when the choppers would come by he would throw plyboards with artificial turf on it to camo his crop. Pretty smart. His father was a cop too.
