Order of Importance

[Beginner Budd]

Im slowly getting everything together but dunno what is more important to buy or have in my room;

My wish list/shopping list
1. 2 600w lights and ballast MH light in one and HPS in the other OR 1000w switchable, dimmable, digital ballast
2. Carbon filter and 6'' output fan
3. 4'' inline cool air and filter
4. Light tube or hood with inlet to cool it
5. Some gardening tools
6. Better heavy duty timers and extension cords
7. Wall mounted osl fan

I was just wondering what order would be the best to buy all this in. Whats more important than others that kinda thing. Im going shopping this weekend and some advice would be nice

dosent matter what order you buy it in aslong as you buy it all before you start your grow...... dont forget you are going to want a Ph tester and maybe a ppm Meter..dont forget about digital therm. and some smart pots.... mabye some osiclating fans... speed fan controller too

There is one in my town and im going this weekend to buy some things but i dont have a lot of cash so im just wondering whats more important to have in the early stages of growing

Yea, you pretty much need it all first, but if I had to say what is most important, probably the carbon filter and other things to help you not get caught.

i pretty much like the order that you have it in now personally....

and i'd also go with the two 600's over the one `1k any day of the week..

hope that helps..

Sweet deal i kinda just randomly ordered them to what ever came to my mind first haha

Might just get 1 600w lighting system a carbon filter and fan setup first just to speed things up.

Side question: can i still use my two t5 florescent lights on the side of my room so the lower leaves still get light? or just get rid of them all together?

Number one NOOB mistake is starting your grow before you grow room is finished....... second mistake is not phing water and exhausting old air back into grow space.... so do your self a favor and dont start growing untell you have EVERYTHING......that way you can cross Noob mistake number one right off the bat...... this will make everything easyer in the long run...... Once you start the cycle anything you do to upgrade will be twice the hassle.......think about it and dont rush it......

Buy it all and set up the room. Run it for 24-48 hours and check your temps and RH. If all is good your ready to grow. If not fix it now. Trust me it's easyer then trying to fix when your growing. And you will still find a few things that need fixed as it grows so make it easy on your self. Do as much as you can first

i have both, 2x600's, and 1000, if i started over i would have 4 600s i think, they run WAY COOLER..
