total newbie

I just picked up 4 OG kush clones today and am setting them up with a 400w bulb (il be adding extra plants) in a closet. What do yall suggest to plant it with and what environmental conditions would be ideal.


thanks

what kind of 400W? HPS or MH?
what medium do you use, soil with perlite or rockwoll? or maybe a hydroponic setup?
what did you do with the walls of that closet? paint them flat white (do that)?
do you got equipment such as a fan, ventilator, pH meter and so one?
what about nutes for later on?

about environment you consult the FAQs please

If you're going soil, Fox Farm soils with 20%-or-so perlite is a good start. You can add vermiculite if you live in an dry climate. You'll need different-sized pots for each transplant. Start with cups, go to 1 or 2 gallon, and then go up to whatever size fits how large you want your plants to get. You'll need a ph meter and ph up and down, but you can also use household items (green_nobody knows his ph, so I'll let him comment).

You next need to work on ventilation, but that is another topic in and of itself.

You'll also need a humidifier/dehumidifier, depending on your climate.
