So I'm going to be attempting my first indoor grow. I'll be using a 4 by 4 tent with a Sunsystems lec 315 cmh bulb. Have a few different strains and I'm going to try for 4 or 5 plants.

So today I was at two local indoor grow stores to get some ideas and recommendations. Most importantly I looking at my options for soil and nutrients. Man this nutrients thing looks complicated. The one guy was telling me my best bet was to use Coco to plant in and use 4 different fertilizers/nutrients by Spartan/Nectar brand. Seems like a lot of stuff to use. He said I will have to monitor PH and make some adjustments with my nutrients based on PH.

Another place recommended Roots Organic soil and just one fertilizer to simplify things, Advance Nutrients PH perfect bloom. He said I wouldn't have to test the PH with this fertilizer.

What do you guys recommend? This is my first indoor grow and I want as simple as possible with good results. Seems like if things are very complicated there's more to go wrong.

Have you used this mega crop with good success? Looks like I'll have to mail order that if I want to use it. Looks simple though.

Yup I've had good results. You can get a sample for the cost of shipping on their website

Megacrop is as simple as it gets. I would add 1/8 tsp bloom booster and epsom salt for a flowering booster.

Promix and mega crop seems to be simplest I've found. Which pro mix are you guys using? Looks like there's an HP and other versions.

@giannid, I am just using Allmix from BioBizz (NL) and testing FLOorganics (from MUC) besides that ... FLO seems to deliver all the nutes and stuff the plants needs all over her whole time ... JUST WATER ...
