Thanks for your advice roll it up smoke it up and bigman4270. The whole point of this first grow for me is to just get the basics down know what to expect and to have something to build off on going into the future. So what kind of lighting schedule should I follow if I just want to have a normal plant cycle? By normal I mean the average time it would take for this all to happen naturally the typical 8-12 weeks depending on the strain. Like I said earlier I have bagseeds.

Hey Fred, you should go with the 18 hours lights on and 6 hours lights off, you get really good results and plus letting the plant have a few hours of darkness will let them recover and grow well

Is it pointless to use such a good organic potting soil like foxfarm ocean forest, and then use chemical nutrients with it? Will the salts kill all the beneficial bacteria that are present in the soil?

I am just wondering if I want to use chemical nutes, should i just plant in a medium like cocco? The nutes that I am planning to use are Jacks classics and jacks bloom

It's not really pointless, the natural bacteria in the soil should not die off, and will still benefit the plant...

It is possible, but it will raise your RH extremely rapidly...you should probably invest in a de-humidifier...high humidity can lead to mold which can ruin a whole crop real quick...
(P.S. Is that your real pic...you should probably take that off IMO...better safe than sorry...assuming your not legal...)

It won't cause too much damage, maybe just a little heat stress, but you should probably figure out a solution to this problem...maybe up your ventilation a lil...
