I’m new to solar setup and need help to purchase the correct panels, wires and solar ground rack for my planned system. I just purchased two Bluetti AC500s with six B300S batteries. I need to purchase the proper solar panels to keep the batteries charged as much as possible using a ground rack setup. Please let me know an inexpensive panel and rack that will work for these inverters and batteries. I’m completely new to solar, but can build a mount if needed and anchor the mount in concrete if it is required. Im in NW Louisiana.
 
I just got the AC300. I already had 16-100watt Renogy panels so that's what I used. The AC300 will accept 2400 watts. Not sure about the AC500. Main thing is keeping the watts at or under the limit and the volts. I had to do 2-800 watt arrays and connect them in series/parallel. Planning on getting 8 more panels for 2-1200 watt arrays. However I would not recommend what I did. I just already had the Renogy panels. If I were you I'd just buy some ~400 watt panels and wire them to keep the volts within limits.

As far as mounting them. I'm in the same boat. I need to come up with something. Mine are all propped up on the ground. Very much not ideal.
