My 3800watt perpetual grow plan

$20,000?

How big is the space?

[stinkyattic]

Well I think you are nuts.
But that's just my opinion.
Of that 20,000 you have, expect to spend up to 5,000 of it on a proper electrical panel and heavy gauge wiring. Tell the electrician that you are a potter and will be running a kiln off it. Don't forget industrial rated time clocks- the plastic plug in ones are NOT safe for a big draw like that.

if you have enough money that you can just blow 20 grand on tryin to grow bud, why dont you just do somethin small for yourself & buy yourself somethin, like some killer to smoke while you wait for your own to grow

all I will need to do is put a few extra circuts in I have done it before.

This frightens me.

What are you running the new circuits off?
Do you have more space on your panel to add breakers?
Are you an electrician?
Is the main feed to your panel heavy enough to handle the total draw?

PLEASE people, don't create fire hazards.

Yeah, I'd recommend a professional for all the electrical stuff. Can't risk any mistakes there. Well, you *can*, but lives are at stake, so not advisable. I've seen some horrifying electrical accidents. Saw one guy get fried so bad his fingers on one hand were fused together, had to have them surgically reseparated. He never really got the full use of that hand back.
