Let me start by saying if this post is not allowed I apologize. I have read the terms,but am unclear if I can get the opinion on non sponsor lighting. So now what I need help with. I have a cabinet 3'x2'6"x6' with Mylar covering all wall space for my soil grow. I plan on growing 2-4 plants in there depending on your guys', and girls, input. I will be using a combination of LST, super cropping, and possibly will be a SCROG set up. Now to the part where I have been reading for the past month and half (to the point it feels like someone threw sand in my eyes, kicked me in the nuts, left me lying on the ground with my eyes bleeding and blowing snot bubbles out of my nose) LIGHTING. Was my description of pain for lighting research stupid? Probably, but that's how I feel. Stressed to the max because this is what makes the grow. After all the nutrients, methods of growing, soils, etc.. your crop still won't thrive without good lighting. So now that I have satisfied myself and bored you with my rambling I will propose what I had in mind and you guys, and girls can shoot me down, and tell me what a goofy novice I am. Like stated prior I have read and read and read and explored all lighting options but decided to go with LEDS for my sole flower light due to the space, the want to be stealthy, and I don't feel like dealing with all the extra heat of HID's. I have narrowed my search down to two LEDs California Light Works 200w Solar Flare bloom booster and the Area 51 SGS-160. If I go the Area51 route I would veg and bloom under that light. If I go the solar flare route I would veg under a 125w 6500k CFL with a hood and then introduce the solar flare when it is time to flower. Well that is the main concern but a few other questions I had are:
Will 3.5 gal pots be good for this grow?
Nute recommendation?
Soil recommendation?
Any other questions or advice is welcomed.
