Hope you got some coin put back, rent and electricity ain't cheap out there.
If I were to do it, I'd be planning for no less than 8 lights to start with. And thats knowing I can produce quality. I sure as hell wouldn't be moving out there to grow if I have never grown before.
Good luck man
DUDE.......ya just set the guy up for a heart attack , told him " electricity ain't cheap out there" and then told him to start with eight lights..........he'll have a coronary when he opens the first bill.
A lot of folks have almost NO idea how ridiculous the power costs are out here , tiered rate structure along with peak/off peak differentials , seasonal differentials and they keep jacking it up ten or fifteen percent a year.
PGE........you listening?........PPRRRRRROOOOOT! I fart in your general direction.
now dont get down yall...first you got to put priorities straight. Id get stoned and think about it. hmmm yes get stoned
sounds like a failure waiting to happen...you dont have enogh capitol to fall back on in case of disaster, which WILL happen its just part of the growing learning curve. your first crops will get PM, mites, hermies, bad genetics, you name it.....
unless you are an experienced indoor grower with harvests under your belt and 20k saved up you are going to have a pretty rough time here in california......
you could always just mersh out some backyard boogie or sell clones to stupid people on craigslist...
