200 amp is pretty standard for a house these days.

2 types of eggplant... San monzanno tomatoes ( sauce).. sweet 100's for salads... two types of lettuce greens... cukes and zuck's.. spinach ... sugar snap peas...hot peppers.. green peppers...Broccoli...assorted herbs..Leaks.. asparagus and garlic..
finally got around to putting in a sprinkler system and timer for he garden ...
... this winter saw my oregano, parsley and rosemary make it through the winter.. it usually dies off.. not this season... I couldn't kill the sage bush if I wanted to..

I think for 200 amps you could service a lot of lights but the bigger concern would be the house wiring...you'd need a lot of circuits. |

Metal Halides need their own breaker and new wiring for safety concerns.These bulbs draw an incredible amount of juice,plus the fact that you need to run fans for cooling purposes also.A separate panel for indoor growing is the best way to go altogether. |

What happened to the good old days where all you needed was a couple of flood lights and a tinfoil closet.
