it wont be good for long. a shoe box isnt very big. unless its for a size 20 snake boot. plus there is no ventilation. the plant needs fresh air flow, plus there is a lack of oxygen. thats just a few things i see that could be wrong. you can make a stealth box with big storage tubs.i made one last year. its only good for two plants. how bout some pics of this shoe box?

for now maybe but what do u plan on doing when it gets bigger?? a plant obviously can't grow very big in a shoe box. Also tin foil is not a very good reflector as it makes the like reflect at numerous angles causing it to burn the plants if at a bad angle, much like a magnifying glass in the hot sun.
