Well I would Suggest Fox Farms Organic soil Ocean forrest works very well. And the Nutes I would suggest Advenced Nuterients sensi grow and bloom A&B this is for both flower and and veg For $60 on Amazon. You can get the Foxfarms oceanForrest for a 12 qt bag runs $15 or a 1.5 CU Ft for $37 on amazon. And remember when it comes to seeds the cheepest are not the best route to take. Remember to pick a strain that matches edge on growing. looking forward to seeing picts of your grow Journal.

Dont think Bunnings carries any of those. But I would start with tomato seedling potting mix from Bunnings about $7 for a 15 litre bag. For watering when the plants a little mature just use nitrosol, $12 a litre. Grown some outdoor beauties with that combination.

Just go to a local hydro store and pick up niksmix, looking around $25 a bag for 40L

I’ve found that tomato nutes work good in veg.
I’m just experimenting with what to use during flower because I haven’t bought any of the fancy stuff for flowering yet. I have a list of stuff i will be getting when I get the chance though.
The strains that go good here really depend on if you are growing indoor or outdoor? I’m growing chronic, AK47XCheese and Granddaddy purple. But they’re indoor I’m waiting for August-September to start my outdoor grow.
