I have a place out in a rural area, the perfect garage, heated, wired everything.
The good thing is its a 3 cop town and they don't bust for weed cause they care more for the people then busting them.
I do understand the fact that an insanely high electric bill will give them a very good excuse to bring in another type of cop.
We have a 30x30 area but I doubt we'll use all of it.
We're looking to make a decent amount of money without bringing up tons of heat.
We have everything taken care of besides the growing so don't worry about that
I kinda wanna stay under 3600 extra watts.
I mean me and my buddys that live with me we all have gaming computers and everything.
Our comps alone consume 2000 watts and they never turn off + 2 big screens
and a 40,000 watt sound system but that's not on much,
I have no problem playing the bills on time at all, keep in mind this is in BC Canada.
Since some people said that was very important ( duh )

I'm open to any suggestions or comments, I'm very intellectual, but I'm still new.
I've been reading for 48 hours straight now lol I'm stoked as hell.
I know that my set up might not be QUITE enough power.
But I want to know if it will still work and work well.

I was planning on having 4 hydro sets 4x4 and having 15 plants on each.
Along with a drip set for the mothers and a cloning set up.
2 veg and 2 flower = 60 plants total harvesting 30 every 2 months.
I was planning on having 4-430 watt HPS 59,000 lumens.
With 2, 2foot, 2bulb t5's both spectrum's on the top/sideish area, would both of those combined be good enough?
If not would 4-600 watt HPS + the t5's be good enough? I hope so...I can't run 1000's.
I'd also have 2, 4 bulb, 4 footers one for the clones and one for the mothers.
Along with the entire area having walls built around it covered in Mylar.
Oh and I also was reading up on SOG and all that stuff, is it fitting for me do? and should I do that?
Or when do you do that, and for what reason.

don't get in it to make money dude...do it for you...and your homies...not for the general public...thats how you get snatched up
