four bags of scotts topsoil with one bag mircale grow potting soil and one bag mircale grow top soil. my ph right now is at 6.5. i was wanting to use c02 but when do i start to use it. also i have orchid bloom booster water soluble orchid food its 11-35-15. i haven't used it yet but i can get whatever you guys would think would be better. also does the taller the plant mean more yeild. size is not a problem when it comes to the plant growth im looking for the best yeild for my setup.

then buy some decent soil,,with no nutes in it,and repott it,,and buy some decent nutes,,marijuana likes food,,,theres plenty of fertilizers out there desighned for marijuana and they arent too pricey i would buy 1 of those, if u do stick with MG soil,,dont add any nutes until flowering

start your clones in rockwool or jiffy cubes,and yes you can use them in hydro...if you start them in soil,then you are pretty much stuck with soil

yr lights are good for vegging,but i highly recommend u get an hps for flowering,,,the differance between cfls and hps's in flowering,is the differance between nice thick dank budd,and airy light budds..up to u,,,htg,sells a 400 watt hps for around 100,with bulb and everything,,,get this,,and u will be able to grow really nice plants,,,as far as nutes i use foxfarm,,advanced nutes is good,,,but if yr going to spend a lil extra cash on yr light,,by the GH brand there pretty cheap and there desighned for marijuana

I am also new to growing but i have been told that miracle grow causes problems in smaller grows. Sometimes it will affect the pH of the soil and cause problems with the plants.
