i would say its not the smartest idea, but not for why your thinking.. what i think is if the first plant got found, putting another one only five hundred yards away from the one that got found doesn't seem like the brightest idea .... its a great big world out there, not that i know where you live or whatever, but take your time, and really look around for a much better spot that has lil to no foot traffic at all and keep an eye on it for a few weeks.. maybe set something up in the area.. put a five dollar bill in a bag and stake it to the ground and leave it there and see if its still there in a week or two.. this will give you a good idea of whether someone is in the area or not.. if no one seems to come around, than try out one plant.. what do you have to lose really.. whenever you go to visit your plant, always have an excuse to be in the area.. have a camera with you and you can say your taking nature pix.. have binoulars and say your bird watching, whatever.. just be safe and always have a reason to be out in the woods aside from growing mj and you should be cool.. i have also read of putting duct tape on the bottom of your shoes to keep your shoe prints from showing up in the dirt, and also take different routes to and from your patch every time so as not to create a path that will lead someone right to your garden..
