Slow work day
Ive had this "idea" for quite some time and im pretty bored so Id like to hear what others would have to say Im not sure if anyone has done this before
The idea is for a underground grow box disguised as a light post. Applicable for growing outdoors using natural sunlight with maximum privacy
The light post would be the short rectangular/square tube and the light cover, square shaped as well. The reason for this is to allow as much sun light as possible into the grow area and not draw attention (Similar to a skylight or sun tubes). There would of course be a actual functioning light as well and could even be used as supplemental grow lighting lol
You could have several arranged in rows are what not
There would have to be a large base at ground level that would be hinged and you could tip the whole thing over for access.
The underground grow chamber I haven't really thought about to much
It would have to be relatively large
The whole thing would have to be insect proof and hopefully water tight
Ventilation is a must perhaps you could use negative pressure considering its underground
Material would have to be synthetic or treated rot proof lumber
The underground construction would allow for pretty stable temp and humidity even in extreme climates which is a big plus
Some drawbacks
Private access would be tough You would have to have a fenced in or secluded area. People would start to wonder why you were always screwing around with your lights
Control of climate issues would have to be automated
Well anyway I need more coffee
Let me know what you think
I think it would be awesome
Imagining a cop strolling along, maybe swinging his night stick and whistling, completely oblivious to the fact that all those rows and rows of aesthetically pleasing decorative garden lights are secretly cultivating pounds and pounds...
