First time grow, need help

Hello,
Like I said first timer, so go easy mrs robinson :)

Going to try and make this as quick and easy to get the basic info out.

Wants-
Quantity- 4-10oz dry. happy with 4, fall over dead if I got 10

Cost- Fairly budget for this first grow. looking to try the waters lets say 300 -400 ish total?

Stealth- not really, just enough that if people came over they wouldnt know by walking into the apartment that I was growing. Obviously if they see ]the box they will have a good idea. Basic filter should work ok.

Safety- Not extreme but using good power strips, wire etc.

System and Lights- Two separate rooms/chambers (not attached). One Veg room. (this is what I am focusing on in this post) and one for flower.

Veg- two 50 gallon rubbermaid bins stacked. Painted with black then white paint. Hole through the middle. 6 socket light fixtures all split. 12 CFL lights. 4 PC exhaust fans, opposite one another at top of room. Passive intakes at bottom of unit. Small circulation fan inside case. 8 pots inside room.

Flower- 400w HPS from HTG supply. Not sure on design of cabinet yet. Focusing on building the veg first.

Any and all advice on the stuff I have bought already etc would be awesome. I havent modified anything other than opening the bulbs, so I can return/exchange anything if you guys have better ideas for me.

Here are some pics of the stuff I have bought so far. Also a photoshop plan to go off of.

Thanks!

















Remember to stop and smoke the flowers
 
Thanks but Im looking to use a different setup here. Looking for advice on the setup I described not an entirely different system.
