I don't think it's fair to compare the cost of using an already built room or area of a house to the cost of building an entire dedicated structure along with all the needed grow equipment.

If I had $30k to spend on a dream set-up as a hobbyist - I'd do it too. It doesn't matter if you could run a commercial grow op for cheaper, that's not the desire or point I don't think?

I agree, everyone of the people saying bull shit and talking about solar panels are the reason we will never see the real glory of the grow. Many times in the beginning the OP said he doesn't want nay sayers. I can't blame him for leaving. On top of that, 99% or more of the people reading this thread have never even tried making a grow this big (including myself) and don't understand the costs to it. That is the problem here, everyone thinks they know everything... So lets take this as a lesson, keep our mouths shut and LEARN SOMETHING until we have 31k grow rooms to back our selves up.

Nay Sayers Just be hatin.. Liars and jealous.. Or they can spend less cuz they live in bumblefuck and they have miles of nothing, and they can grow in greenhouses, outdoors, or even indoors with minimal security and mediocre lighting.. I want to see this shit, then I want him to private message me with further instructions on wheras this place is so I can go hang out with him everday.. I'm sure he'll have no problem as long as I'm polite lol

Well, I finally raised enough money to build my grow room. I will be breaking ground this summer. I started ordering materials and grow room supplies this week. I will describe in detail what exactly I will be doing. The only drawing I have of the room is too large to upload.


The room dimensions are 20' x 20'. There is a holding area (5'x7') with two security doors. The security doors are custom made, with the outer door being 4” thick made of steel (1/2” thick) and the inner door being 6” thick made of 1/2” thick plate steel with a hydraulic lock. The two doors set me back $4,000.00. The base is a reinforced concrete pad with a 2' high brick base. The walls are made of steel 2”x4”x9' beams with a metal security screen tack-welded all the way around. Then plywood and vinyl siding to make it look pretty and inconspicuous. There are no windows in this room. I am using soundproofing insulation and baffling to kill the noise of fans and ballasts and whatever else I may be doing in there. Between the walls and the baffling is also heat shield. In the ceiling there will be an exhaust cooling chamber and an intake scrubber. The cooled exhausted will be vented via a dryer vent. I am making sure to put a garbage disposal system into the sink area. Any nutrient solution or waste nutrient will be drained into a holdover tank with a reverse osmosis filter system so that the wastewater will be clean for the sewer system. I am also installing a dishwasher to expedite container and tool cleaning and sterilization. I have also constructed two ballast boxes with over temp sensors for a small fire suppression system.


For the growing materials, I spent quite a bit of money. I built all of the aeroponic systems that I am going to install. I bought 4 – 1000W digital ballasts with SuperSun2 reflectors. I also purchased the reflector heat covers. The veg area has 3 – 600W digital systems on a light mover. All of the lights are going to run on a 220V system. For the cloning and seedling area, there will be a 4” - 8 light T5 light. For ventilation, there are a total of 4 – 12” can filters with 4 – 12” can fans. Intake and exhaust will be double filtered. I am installing some racking to make an expandable cloning area that is able to hold 3 4x8 T5 light systems. I am installing 2 – XGC-1 greenhouse controllers linked in with 6 CO2 tanks. I have a sulfur vaporizer to hank in the middle of the room. For temperature control, I have a 3 area a/c system that will run through the ceiling.


All in all, this setup cost me $31,000.00. It is the best money I have ever spent and I will post pictures of everything when I am done (around October).

im surprised how many people believe this crap. who the fuck gets a 6 inch steel door and builds a all steel structure. Thats just stupid. How could one say they are being discrete, how do you explain a building that looks like a bank vault and has little to know heat signature coming from it discrete. Also who are you hiring to build this thing. Also if someone built this thing getting back to a no heat signature, but yet use so much power. Its not like someone would say hey this place runs more power then a house with a family of 6 but yet so ice cold inside. you say your gonna run 4 1000 watts, 3 600 watts, 12 fans, 4 t5's 8 bulbs each a dishwasher, and everything else and yet no heat will show and your electrical bill will be about 600 a month for that one 20 by 20 space.

Props to lush for the security.. and for every1 here saying he's going over the top... you are all very very wrong and miss guided... you all must not live in a city were people there jobs are finding grow ops and robbing them... that is why he's gone to the bees kness to ensure he doesnt get pinched.. he obvs isnt having the steel doors as his exterior that would be like a big giant neon sign to his grow.. he's probly gonna make his own self contatained room in the middle of his house or garage or warehouse w.e he is building... Wat every1 here doesnt understand is he is obvsly doin this for a long term investment not just making a fuckin grow box becuz thats all they can fit in there apartment or thats all there mommmy will allow...
Lushbox knows wats up.. give him pointers not critizime you fools.. your all just too bloody jelouse he's doing wat your all dreamin of doing but cant cuz you dont have the money

kinda sucks to drop all that cash and only end up with a 4000 watt bloom room...
just my opinion tho. and u prolly dont need all three 600's, or the dishwasher (how much stuff could u need to wash??)
i personally would re-think how 2 set this up.

as for the doors, its hard 4 me to say if u needs them of not (+ u already bought them). if you live in the wrong part of town and the jackers know your holdin on something big, then they will do some crazy shit to home invasion your ass. - it happens in my town here and there... hydro store got robbed with machine guns and the cannabis club got held up as well a few years back. it just depends on where you live and who you associate with.

anyhow i would double up on the lights... 8 x 1000 watters... above four 4 x 8 trays and make this shit serious. if you want to get serious spending $ and serious building the room than you should get serious about the grow and make the most of your space and investment.

There seems to be a lot of overkill for a 4000W flower room, but you can do whatever you want or can afford. I know people who have more wattage than that in a garage and have not had problems for years. I don't think the RO of wastewater is going to work well. The micro-filters will become clogged very fast. What is your reasoning for filtering before entering the municipal waste stream?

i believe dumping commercial-grade fertilizers directly into average waste water systems constitutes an additional federal offense the pigs will try to pile on... 3-5 extra years in prison is reason enough to put some filters in my view....
