The soil I would recommend for starting out would have to be Roots Organic. Once you know how and when to water then you can switch over to Fox Farms Ocean Forest later if you want...or start with Coco...it seems to be pretty darn user friendly as well...I say not to start with Fox Farms because if you overwater it then you will see all sorts of issues caused by the nutes already in the soil...Roots has nutes as well, but it doesn't seem to be as strong in roots as FFOF...I prefer FFOF, but as I said I have no issue with watering...anyway...you have a long way to go and a short time to get there....so jump in and try to learn as you go...I feel like very few people did a whole lot of research before starting this journey..and even if you did there is nothing like actually doing it to build experience.

Curious why you think FFOF is a step from Roots? Just in regards to how hot FFOF is?

My grow room(not tent) is as clean as clean can be. Everything is kept put away, swept up,
and in order. If you grow it has to be that way or your opening yourself up to all kinds
of problems. Tent or closet don't matter.Cleanliness does matter so why can't you keep the closet clean but you can the tent?

My grow tent is covered in 6 inches of dirt, and looks more like a giant shared bed...Lol. Not had any issues due to it...I figured that a bunch of plants living in dirt wouldn't care to be around more dirt, and I was right...No standing water though...standing water is bad...dirt strewn around seems to cause no issue though...Lol.

Well if you overwater roots you get an overwatered plant...if you overwater FFOF you get a burnt plant...also a plant in FFOF can go a month or more with no nutes, but with Roots the same plant will need nutes in 2...that is all that leads me to believe the FFOF is stronger. I do like how fine and gentle the ROots is though.

to be honest u got some good advice here so there is no real need for me to comment lol, but as for stateing where u are is suicide, neither me, or i bet anyone else who has commented on this post have ever stated where there live. the closet will be enough no need for a grow tent too. my advice, READ READ READ.
