Yo my fellow stoners 
. So i decided to grow myself for the first time. I have been researching stuff for a month or two extensively. I want you guys to take a look at my plan and give me tips on how i can improve it. I have some questions i couldn't answer through research.
Gonna buy
1. C02, Temperature, Humidity measuring device
2. Water PH measurer
3. PH up-PH down Soil PH measurer
4. Some sort of LED ( not sure about the size)
5. Ocean forest ff soil
6. FF Liquid nutrient Trio for soil
7. 24 hour timer power strip
8. Grow tent ( not sure about the size)
9. Plastic pots (2.5 gallons? not sure which would be the best)
I am going for auto sweet tooth, gonna order 3 from barneys and 3 from seedsman. Don't really know which is better so we'll see, I want to end up with the 4 plants but because its my first time grow i am allowing the possibility of 2 dying doing germination/seedling.
Gonna germinate the seeds first by letting them drown in distilled water and then gonna put them in FF Ocean forest soil - beer cups and adjust the soil PH to 5.5-6.5. I am gonna sterilise the soil by baking it or putting it on electric cooker with water, been reading that there is a good possibility of infestation with commercial soils.
Once i plant the seed into the soil how often should i flower it doing germination till seedling begins?
I am thinking on avoiding nutes till a week or two into seedling, do you guys think this is a good idea?
How often should i give nutes and water doing germination and seedling?
Once i see the plant has began seedling and has leaves starting to grow well, I am gonna put it under LED light. I have found two good ones from what people say, but I am not sure which ones should i buy based on plant size.
According to the info i found, sweet tooth grows to around 70-90 cm (27-35 inches).
I am thinking on either two Mars Hydro 600 watt or four roleadro 138 watt LEDs. One mars can cover 3x2.5 square feet while one roleadro can cover 1x1 square feet. Which one do you guys think would be a better choice considering 4 plants with estimated 27-35 inch heigh?
Obviously Roleadro will make my bills smaller but maybe mars is worth it?
I am planning to put it on 20-4 for the whole life since its an auto.
What size pot should I buy for vegetative and flowering stages considering the estimated size? would 2.5 gallon pot be enough?
Does a bigger pot mean a bigger plant even for an auto?
Once the plant start approaching being big for the cup I am gonna transplant it into a pot and gonna water it with water PH 5.5-6.5 and also gonna add 1/4 dose of the vegetative nutes from ff trio and then throughout the vegetative stage start giving it a full dose 2-3 times a week. A good plastic pot with drainage holes. Gonna water it once an inch deep feels dry.
In early vegetative stage gonna bend the main stem into a spiral with some soft thin rope for LST so the plant grows many colas. Gonna be monitoring soil PH once a week.
Once the plant start getting into flowering stage gonna keep the nutes same and water too but gonna decrease temperature with bagged dry ice to 18-20 degrees celsius so the resin production goes up. Once i see good frosting and buds getting good signing time for soon harvest will decrease water and nutes one week prior to harvest and trim the plant.
Gonna flush couple days before harvest.
Any critic, tips, corrections are very welcome.
Also, do you think that a 48x48x80 tent will be enough for this grow?
Thanks in advance.
