13,000 watts....you will get an amperage spike on start up so don't start them all at once.

Remember too for a generator there's peak watts, and regular running watts. Get a gen that is at least ~15% more power than you need.
And don't forget the power to run your climate control systems.

you would want at least a 15Kw generator, I would suggest a Multi-Quipp Whisper Watt model with the additional baffle for quietness.. (diesel) there are others that run off propane. If you search my threads you will find a pic of a whisperwatt in a gro titled 'trainwreck, purple irkle, & gp#4'. should nail it down for ya, dont forget your gonna need a fuel tank to feed that baby.

sort thru the pages, you will see the generator, etc.
