    If you want to have 2 or more circuits on at the same time, you can either get a 2 circuit time clock (like the one I have in my pic) that will throw on 2 circuits at 1 time. Other wise you will need lighting contacters. Basically, add up your wattage and figure the amperage, then figure how...

    U can use any HID light for that many plants. I would suggest HPS lighting just becuase of the massive amounts of lumens it puts out. Some ppl go with refelctors and some ppl don't. I believe its just personal preference. If I were growing 96 plants I would definately go 600-1000w HPS. The...

    You can use whatever size CFL you like. And sure, you can wire your fixture to the extension chord. As long as you dont have more then a 15 amp load you should be fine with 14 guage wire. 45 feet isn't long enough for a significant voltage drop. I would recomend 12 gauge wire. Yes, you can...

    Smoote pretty much nailed it. A surge protector is pretty much a multi outlet with a small replacable fuse in it. And you should be fine with a regular 14 guage wire extension chord to run what you need. Good explaination smoote.

    Residential house plugs are usually 15amps unless in maybe a kitchen or garage. Up scale homes may have nothing but 20amp plugs all the way around the house. you should be fine at 1000w but your getting close to max if you are plugged into a 15amp plug and I wouldn't put much more on that to be...

    This doesn't really apply to AC current for your project. In theory you would be wiring this in series, just wire the black to the black, white to the white, and if there is a green or just naked wire: green/naked to green/naked. And that is it.

    You always want to adjust the PH after adding your nutes, wether liquid or powder. Its also best to get an electronic PH tester, you can get one at target for like 15 bucks. Its more accurate then the strips and a little more practical. Also, I have noticed it can sometime take a bit of PH up...
