Hey man if you are going outdoors for the cost... its indoors you just need to be growing more then .. it should not run u that big of a cost .. compared to the reward. If you only have like 1 plant ... yea true .. I dont know the economics/ or values there but you should be making more than it cost to produce, you should have a clone shelf, and maybe a cross indica and stavia stain so its not to big and u can not use all your light, but you should be making a harvest every 6 weeks or so I dont know. Oh and if you live in states and go outdoors with your setup go big and many spots you need to send me all your hydro stuff though I want to try it out... I just do a soil median this is my fist time growing indoors I did outdoor for like 4 years or so I dont know man but best of luck. this is just my opinion you will weigh your options I guess.
