I've been thinking a lot about growing outside but am very worried for the numerous reasons that go with it, mainly stealth. I had an idea to put my plant completely inside a large white maybe transclucent outdoor trash can, I would try to get one that is like 4/5 feet tall.My question is will this be enough light? I already have plants growing indoors so i could make them stretch and kinda skinny but I am worried only the very top will get light or the fact it may only get light when the sun is directly over it, although if the can is white will the sunlight be able to penetrate the plastic at all? And if so will that light even be usable? I think this would have advantages because I could cut out the bottom and let the roots grow larger and in the ground. Also it will have a lid I can use during the night or storms etc. Does anyone forsee any problems with this idea? Anybody ever heard or done this? Thanks

I'm just unsure if the sun could make it through a white?
