Pretty big place you might want to keep shit like this to yourself. Just saying, happy to help but this is the internet and that many plants will get you life even in a legal state. Might as well just post you are going to rob a bank and take out the cops, just saying.

Cooling is a no brainer, just calculate the sq footage and there are plenty of guides as to which units to choose. With that said 250 lights is going to be an issue, they need to be vented outside without the aide of the cooling unit. You can only string a few together so the real chalange here is the light cooling not the room.

What is the climate like there, here is it over 100 just about 30 percent of the year and keeping those lights cool during those periods would mean less than three to each vent and filter system.

Back up, protection and prevention are going to be your real issues. Just setting up and planting is not going to help with insect break out or nute issues or other stuff. If you dont seperate them in sections you run the risk of having an outbreak that takes out the entire crop.

Wish I lived there, this has been my dream lol

Cant do it here without the risk of prison or death from comp. lol

Two things, a grow this big, set up in green house env ie no lights if the glass is set up right, lights would be a min of maybe 9 hours to start. With that said dont know what country he is in so the cost might vary from what we pay here.

i have 6 60kw diesel generators from john deere,and i have 2 more on the way, all the lights will be connected to the diesel generators,and then all the fans etc will be powered by the 3 phase electricity that is installed in the building.

C'mon now you have power (and plenty of it), the rooms sized out, the lights situated, and plant count calculated but have no idea how to ventilate :o

Something does not smell right here, but I'll play along. Was the building built for growing? and with no ventilation?

regards,
