Have you thought about getting a water tank or some 44's to collect rainwater? Australia is dry as all fuck. Most places outside the cities have water tanks for gardens or drinking water. Its a lot easier than digging a well and its costs jack shit to set up. Running 5 gals of water 100ft would be good weight training though.

Have you got seed/clones yet? What strain/s are you going to grow?

What were you planning on doing light wise? With the amount of ventilation up there, there would be room for several thousand watts of lighting even more with cool tubes.

I can't believe I missed the seedlings. I posted right after the pic. dur I'm running a 400w hps & a 400w mh and about 100w of CFL without any power worries. Now that I've changed over to gas heating and CFL lighting in the house my electricity is now cheaper than before I started growing. I've been told to be careful of growing on off peak power though. Supposedly its a good way to get busted growing.

Looking good man, wish I could do an attic set up at my place but my attic sucks, it's split into two small sections instead of one big one across the whole house.
I have to agree with those who said to run a water line up there. Especially if you plan to go hydro in the future. I run a hydro garden in my basement and I don't have a water line down there. It REALLY is a pain in the ass hauling so much water all the time up and down stairs. And I'm only running 4 5 gallon buckets. From the dimensions you've given I'm guessing you'll be needing about 2x as much water as I am using.
All in all looks really good though. Can't wait to see this setup in action. + rep

Hello, looking good. Just IMO power consumption doesn't raise any red flags. The power company is like any other business, PROFIT. You pay your bills on time and they are happy. My buddy is an executive at a power company and he told me that if they could get all homes running 20,000+ watt grows and paying their bills on time his check would be bigger come Christmas bonus time. Like I said though IMO.
Way to go!
