I have no idea about anything. My basement has 2 rooms, the first room is 15' x 9' and the second room is 14' x 12' (I figured the second room should be used for the flowering stage since it's bigger). Both rooms are 7' tall and that's to the ceiling. I like Sativa dominant strains but is 7' even tall enough to grow Sativa? Which strains would be better for this size room? I want the best quality/yield balance I can get (preferably that leans towards being Sativa dominant).
I hear a lot of controversy between using fluorescent and using metal halide (I live in Texas so I'm trying to keep the electricity down...but I'm still trying to get "blow your mind" weed)? And I'm guessing I'm supposed to use hps for the flowering stage? What wattage should I get?
and how many plants could I grow with the size of my basement (I was thinking around 16 in one room for vegetating and 16 in the other room for flowering)?
Should I use some type of white plastic to cover all of the walls, floor, and ceiling to keep it clean and reflect as much light as I can?
Is Aero, Hydro, or Soil better for what I'm trying to do? (I want to go completely organic if that makes any difference)
What kind of materials does the ROOM need? (good fans for ventilation, Air conditioning, something for the odor, etc.)
Basically if you were in my position and you had this basement just begging to be grown in, what would you do with it and how would you do it? (without having a HUGE electric bill preferably)
Links to things such as lights, seeds, etc. are greatly appreciated as well.
