How many lights do you plan on buying?

How much money of your total budget do you want to put towards lights?

Do you have experience growing?

If so, what yield to you typically get per watt?

If not, learn to grow before weighing your harvest.

What's your budget per light would be a better place to start and with a 40 x 20 im assuming you have a shipping container by the diameters and if thats the case you could run pretty much any bar light led system 8 long and 3 or 4 wide. Gravity, am, the like style lighting but you would also have to run ac and dehumidifiers to keep your atmosphere good but I'd guess an easy 30 40k easy in investments if you actually wanted to do the best setup.

Yeah with thay kinda space I would definitely spend the money and to drop the heat off hid light's versus leds you'll have alot of heat savings. I'd say with that climate control as long as you keep your humidity in check it has the possibility of producing very nicely. For sure a ton of garden work to constantly keep you busy if you grow to that size. But good luck for sure its been one of my thoughts to eventually get to that size.

You're talking 5 to 10k or more in light movers.

Ac 28,000 btu is not going to cut it....each HPS 1000wt light puts out 6,000btu's

15 to 20k watts of lighting do the math on the btu's

Lots of money just to pay to run the fucking show...

Scale your shit down do a couple runs and then do the math from there...whats so hard about figuring it out...a guy, a regular guy, could have this all figured out already....the ac unit you posted HOW MANY LIGHT DO YOU THUNK THATS GOOD FOR
