where i live here, ar, chicken houses have gas generators. they r fuckin huge 6 cylinders running off of nat gas. they r no louder than a forkilift u hear running INSIDE of any warehouse. They do create a little noise, but your generator room could contain egg crate materials on the walls, ceilings, etc. or just anything that will absorb the sound. But your gonna have to have gas setup to the house to supply that amount of natrual gas. I dont think refilling 100 lb bottle would do the trick here. oh yeah if u do get this underway, please start up a journal for the rest of us. Best of luck.

Solar power is about 4.50/watt, it is not a viable solution for growing with HID at the moment.

Instead of using that ridiculous amount of lights and electricity, why don't you look into purchasing some light movers, you can use half the lighting for the same amount of space.

Using a natural gas generator isn't going to get you away from suspicion, if anything it will be more suspicious to be using a copious amount of expensive gas when you've got a cheap electrical hookup.

it can be done my friend , check out this grow op in a house that was busted 27 days ago. The guy that owned it was a college kid studying botany or some shit. The only reason he got caught was some drunk driver drove their fucking truck into his house and he left it there for days. but check out all the pics and it shows it whole grow-op and how he had it set-up with A/C units , shitload of lights, he even knocked down walls and reconstructed the house for growing. on the outside it looked like a regular surburban house. on the inside it was a fucking factory.


there's like a hundred pix - but check them all out , it'll inspire you

stays relevant.
I love how all you seem to speak of is the "money" your gonna make.

First off it really is quaint that you think its so easy to haul in natural gas generators to residental houses, because its NOT.

Neighboors in any area are supsicious fuckers.

NO the leccy company wont turn you in they will love you.

AND AGAIN this website greatly frowns on commercial setups, but please if you have the balls to come one here and talk about having $20k to setup a major grow op, PLEASE POST A DIARY we want to see it.

And finally as it is becoming comon practice big time commercial growers are switching to ROtating Hydrosystems, they run about $3k a piece but hold 320 plants.

work off of 2 1000 watt lights (can pull 8 pounds out of them each)

If you dont know what Im talking about then you are really not ready for what you speak so fluidly about.

and if I was your "exp friend" I would pissed as fuck at you for even coming on here to talk about it.

Wow this is pretty hostile... For all you know this grow could be going to medical clinics and he could be in perfectly legal standing.

ya i seen that after i got done i kinda covered all the basics i understand to start small i grow mushrooms to and that was hard but after i started small a few ounces i then went to 20 pounds every 2 months its not really that hard once you do start small all you do is math im just trying to find out more about generators and how other people get away with it thats all i need some advice on that i see growing in there house they live in have setups this big

and dude its 4 / 8x4 rooms with custom built aquamist systems the whole width of the room 4 / 600 watt hps pre room and venting is not a problem my cousin is a license contractor so thats taking care of
AND his mushroom growing was medicinal as well???

its pretty easy to read between the lines.

Dont get me wrong, what I wrote was hostile, but I may have saved his life, what if he did get busted for being a complete newbie moron in above his head.

Or even if I just saved him from spending buku on something he found he couldnt handle.

At the very least it got him to do more research and view a outside perspective from someone who has accomplished something as large as he is dreaming of.

Sorry I can be a bitch. But thats life.

im with alphanon on the light movers. but growing that much shit is crazy. not only would you have to have a clean setup so you dont get busted but imagine trying to take care of that many plants. i hope you got alot of time on your hands and alot of money because your gonna need it. you might as well expect other expenses to. like what if your circuit breaker cant handle all the electricity. or all them lights catches sumthin on fire. you'll need room to store all of your fertilizers and water also. and if your dealing do you even know enough ppl to get rid of that amount of shit. jeez...what your trying to do would be a major commitment.
