First Grow from bagseed

hello everyone just wanted to share my first grow. i am growing 3 plants at a time well 3 vegging and 3 flowering. Just enough to smoke myself. my soil mixture is a custom blend roughfly 40% black dirt with a little sand, 25% monrovia planting compost, 25% Composted cow manure and 10% perlite. i also am going to add a top layer of composted steer manure a couple weeks in to preflowering. I vegg under 4 flourescent tubes 2 cool white and 2 daylight full spectrum. i vegg at 16/8 and flower at 12/12
i just moved my first 3 to the flowering room. it has a huge cardboard box that a snap-on tool chest came in and inside at both ends there a 2 flourescent tubes one of each again and then there is a 150w hps above them. i will share pics soon as i get get in there agian.( using a secure location). Just wanted to know peoples opinions of this setup. I always have a fan and air purifier going in each room. My nutrients are as follow during veg i mix it up between a 20-20-20 and 8-4-16 miracle grow and for flowering im using a 10-54-10 bloom enhancer. i always dilute them to about 1/5th strength because i heard they dont like much. I top the plant at the fourth node and prune some lower branches to fill out the bottom. i am so happy i discovered my first female today the day after i moved it into the flower room. i only have 2 flowering now since my lights fell hacked off a branch on one and killed another . I'll post new picks soon as i am planting new ones tonight. Sorry about the long post but am looking forward to hearing peoples suggestions

it all sounds good... but also pictures would be nice in this situation to keep us curious grow journal stalkers up to date
 
i cloned both plants the day this pick was taken i think it was a bad idea since it had just started to flower just got first couple sets of white hairs was this bad. the one on right turned out to be male so i pulled it and its colne today
