Two thoughts...
tapping into the ac sounds cool, but what about the winter? I live in the south as well so winter means different things to different people. But at some point do you turn off the ac and crank up the heat? Even when its cooler here, the attic space in my home still stays fairly warm(probablt never get below 90ish)....Also with an attic room, keeping it cool if you ever have a power outage will be a real challenge(I live in hurricane country). A generator would probaby be able to help with the lights, but keeping it cool will still be kinda hard. Other than that, I wish I had a truly out of the way place that I could grow....BEST OF LUCK!!!
