New Grower Setup - Look good for a first time grow?

Hey guys! I am new around these parts of the web and primarily due to the fact that I am starting my first grow operation indoors. I have spent countless days and nights searching for something that would hide my operation well from others and also that was easily transportable if the need arises. I was wondering from some experienced growers if this setup below is a nice starting point to get the ball rolling. Below are the links to the items I am thinking of purchasing. I want basically everything delivered together all at one time so all I have to do once received is get the water and the seeds in place.

With the kit above I would also purchase all the additional items listed on the page such as:


* Lighting Options (Select 1): 4-600w HPS Bulbs/Ballasts (Comes with the package already)

* Hydroponic System (Select 1): 24-Site Super BubbleFlow Bucket (Comes with the package already)


CO2 Augmentation:
Super Co2 Kit - $199

Total Germination Package:
$69.99

TechnaFlora Nutrient Super Pack:
$215

Stealth RO Water Filter:
$315

24-7 Nutrient Monitor:
$219


This put's me at a total of around $6,700 (which I have the funding so I am not strictly locked into a budget on this project). Also if anyone has or uses currently a Co2 setup I would love to hear your knowledge on how I should correctly administer the Co2 to my girls. All the help for first time growers is appreciated and encouraged. I want this to go as smooth as smooth can be. Thanks guys! :leaf:

How much are you looking to grow? That's a lot of capital to start up for a hobby? I'm a newbie too so I won't offer too much opinion. But one thing I have found in my set up is that you don't need to spend huge dollars on everything if you think about what its purpose is and how you might be able to do it yourself.
 
Well I got the money for it and I am jumping on the legal side of things becoming a caregiver. So I need myself a decent set of plants for what I have in mind. I have over $10,000 to put into it but want to save the remaining funds after purchasing all this equipment for the electricity bills and additional costs when need be outside of the initial setup.
 
As a noob to this stuff I think everything looks good. Just ensure you got your major things organized: Heat, light, growing medium, ventilation, and food for your plants.
Also it appears your trying to grow a lot. Have you a plan to hide this? Legal or not most people aren't that prone to be smiling at you should you be doing a grow up unless they think they can get free stuff out of it. Be safe and have fun. I looked at what you got and if your doing a major grow this should suit u just fine. If not get something a little smaller. Please update us of your progress I'd love to see how this works out.
 
Looks good dude. Got all the parts you need, but I see a shit ton of man hours ahead of you for the setup. Especially, if your setting up solo so keep that in mind.
I would ditch the RO water filter though, any water you can drink is good enough for the plants.
Good luck and keep us posted.
