My nephew and I are about to start our first grow

Oh. And I usually add CO2 the last 30 days of veg (when I take them from the closet to the tent). I do this "organically" by making wine outside the tent and using a feeder tube from the wine demijohn to the top vent of the tent. This produces a massive amount of co2 for 30 days. You don't need co2 during bloom. Plus I get wine and weed when I'm done. Yay me! Lol.

Some notes on your 2 strains. Bubblelishious and Northern Lights.
-Both are very easy to grow
-both strains are very hardy and resilient for novice growers.
-Both strains will grow 4-5 feet.
-Both strains are good for scrog, LST, manifold and flux.
-BOTH STRAINS LIKE COOL FRESH AIR.
Keep it cool, keep it breezy.
-Northern lights is prone to mould and fungus. Avoid foliar spraying. Wash well at harvest.

You won't need the worms or the guano. If you use guano chances are you'll over do it and get Nitrogen toxicity. Guano works better outdoors. If you want guano, use Earth Juice grow. It has guano, worm casings and many other organic compounds specially formulated for Cannabis.
I don't know what super soil is but if you're using a custom mix on your very first Grow I would advise against it. Unless you have the ability to measure and formulate your own soil you risk damaging your Grow.
Try to keep it simple.

If you want to customize a little please consider getting a soil test kit. They are around $20 and are a invaluable tool for diagnosing your soil before you use it and throughout the grow to determine and prevent problems.

It will allow you to mix up a small batch of soil and perform a four-part test and see if you get the mixture right.

I'm on the fence about the first video. He says he never uses fertilizer, ph meters or really anything that 90% of the pro growers use here at 420.
And is that fucking hay or straw on his soil? That's the quickest way to infect your plants, soil and home with harmful bacteria and spores. Inhaling mould from hay, straw, corn stalk, etc, can cause a very serious disease called "Farmers Lung". Spores from two types of bacteria, "Micropolyspora faeni" and "Thermoactinomyces vulgaris", and certain types of moulds called "Aspergillus" are the major causes of Farmer's Lung.
I'd have to say taking video one's advice is not recommended.

That looks good. Not simple and I hope too much Nitrogen doesn't hold in the soil come flower.
But I guess you're set.
I just would have bought ProMix and EJ for $20 all together but it's your Grow.

Mix up a batch at test it with a $12 soil test kit. I'd be curious to see what your ph and NPK values are.

Didn't post. Lol.
Like I said. Mix it up and test the soil. Use science man. You need comparative data and the most economical way to get this is for $13.82 at Walmart.

You only need the 1L bottles. Stuff lasts forever. There's a whole line if you feel like going crazy but I just use the Grow, bloom and the Catalyst and Molasses when the buds swell.
