Exhausting to a ridge vent / soffit Attic

I have the opposite problem; my summers are hot and humid. It’s hard to keep things cool/dry enough.

The house is air conditioned though the flower room isn't other than using house air to exhaust. But summer here is very humid too. I just downsized the AC so it would run longer to wring out more humidity.

So summer is here and I think I need to make an intake hole in the closet that the air intake filter box is in that goes though the floor to the crawlspace. This so it pulls air from there when directed as it needs summer time ventilation. I actually already pull from there but from the kitchen. I would leave this for winter but shut it down for summer.

But would also like to rerout the exhaust ventilation back to the attic during the summer. It would take a more durable 6" flex hose that the expanding aluminum I have now. But otherwise a simple hose clamp and change from the wall to the celling.

The outside wall exhaust is kind of noisy.
