28'x15'= 420 sq. ft. Since you wanna do that massive killer crop (we'll figure 50 watts per sq. ft), you only need ~ 20 (1000 watt H.P.S.) for flowering, or 35 600 watt H.P.S.
Yeah, you NEED a generator. Drawing 20 kw's/hour x 12 hours= 240 kwh's a day= 7200 kwh's per month. You WILL get someones attention.
GIve each plant 3'x3', thats only ~45 plants. You'll be busy as a one armed paper hanger with crotch itch come trim time.
Better know an electrican, HVAC guy, or be both, seriously. And that 10,000 BTU AC you have you can smash. It will be just as effective when running that kind of light.
Who said weird
b0nger
P.S. Post pictures when you have it all set up. I will eagerly await them.

This is nowhere near low enough to cause hypoxia or produce carbon monoxide. Admittedly, I probably should have mentioned that you should check and see if your appliances have these sensors if you want to be on the safe side.

stinky i do remember a couple of stories like that, slightly different though. one of those were a lesson in rehab no less. how many pebbles can you get out of the jar in one try? so you would reach in and grab a handfull, then you couldnt get your hand out because you had a fistfull of pebbles.(you might get a couple out if you were carefull and grabbed them with your fingertips) the other was a couple of crows on a picnic table with pitchers of water on them, since the water was too low for them to stick their heads in and get a drink one of the crows decided to wait till it rained then he could surely get a drink, the other started picking up small pebbles and dropping them in his pitcher. eventually he had put in enough pebbles to raise the water level to the top of his pitcher and he could drink from it.
that garden will still be a humongus amount of work, but i am glad you found somebody to help you.

Anyway, I'm just raggin on ya cuz really, I haven't seen the kind of construction you are talking about for a very long time. Nowadays, every precaution is taken to make sure that all the by-products of combustion are vented outside the occupied area. Even my gas oven has a vent through the roof and my gas range has a vented hood over it.

NEW SETUP QUESTIONS
anything said in this post is completely made up, i know nothing about marijuana i just pretend for fun
K now comes the second part, how u plan on growing in the future should dictate what type of setup you buy .. for example say you decide to do a sea of green room with 6 1000 watters , at 25 plants per light .. you could have a veg room that consists of 1 1000 watt light for a few mother plants , and a few 6 footer fluorescents to veg clones under .. and that should be all you need for a veg setup to supply 6 1000 watters in flower.(if you were to do a sea of green setup). So in short to answer your qeustion what should you buy .. well ... it all depends on what type of flower setup you were hoping to have. If your doing commercial in my opinion sea of green is the way to go .it requires less lights for veg , and in my opinion if you do it old school method u need more veg lights , and in my opinion your better off using all that extra wattaga you would be throwing at veg lights into flower lights = more bud every cycle. Ill be more than happy to answer a question if u have one :rastasmoke:
