If i lived near you i'd help you dig out a cellar for free. I love digging. Unless the ground is too rocky or full of too many roots and then i need power tools, hammer drills, etc

I'm going to dig a new drain when it cools off. I want water to take slow path through my property to irrigate it better.

Where I live the ground is very rocky and my house is surrounded by lush forest on all four sides. So pretty much anywhere there isn't a rock, there's a root. Would be a miserable job.

I'm buying undeveloped property and will be doing A LOT of digging in order to build my house properly. Concrete/rubbercrete, double story rectangle with one side exposed for windows, tucked into the side of a hill.

You'll be able to drive a bulldozer on my roof 👍

No because humidity moves through earth walls and concrete

Pine box homes suffer from high humidity and mold. Trapped in walls, attics, in layers of sheetrock, damp wood, not enough air flow, basements

Not really. Several factors prevent such a thing.

The rubbercrete, the thermal mass of a foot and a half of it and a decent open floor plan with a good HVAC/fan system should prevent any dead zones where humidity could collect.

The location and placement can also make a big difference.
