Himalayan Gold 1 Plant Grow using 90W UFO LED

Hi, I'm 100% new at this so all the help and advice is going to be deeply appreciated. I didn't really know where to start so I will be growing in a 1m by 1m tent which arrived yesterday. I heard LED lights were the way forward and due to where it's located heat and noise would be a problem so I got one of these. It's a Prakasa 90W 5 Spectrum UFO LED Grow Light.

I planted the seed in rockwool about 4 weeks ago and germinated it in a heated propagator, once it got about an inch in height I took it out and the roots were growing tremendously quick so I had to pot it straight away, into what I think is a 10 Gallon pot where it will remain. This was then put outside in a small green house. It has lived there for the past 4 weeks and has grown nicely, well at least I think, you tell me, most likely down to the spell of sunshine we had for a few days (in the UK).

I have been using a few vegetative nutrients the VitaLink Easy Grow brand but at a quarter strength after week 2. As the tent arrived yesterday it was immediately set up and the plant got transferred to it last night during the dark. Today is it's first day on a 12/12 cycle.

The strain is Himalayan Gold and the seed is supposedly feminised. I also have a clone of Cheese from Birmingham so should be pretty good but this isn't in the tent yet as I don't know if to risk it in case it turns out to be male, what do you think? It has been doing pretty well outside at the moment, it's the same height but is a lot bushier.

When do I start feeding the plant Nutrients for the flowering stage and what? I'm growing in Canna CoCo Professional Plus.

Everybody's help is really appreciated.

I forgot to ask, what else do I need? At the moment that's all I have. Will I need air circulation? Blowing air in/out? Or just a clip on fan?

Your going to want air circulation in the form of an osculating fan and some way to bring fresh air in and stale air out. I usually start feeding flower nutes when the first white hairs pop, i feed 1/4 strength bloom for the first week then kick it up to 1/2 the next two weeks then full strength the rest of the way till flush. Some ona gel or a few renuzit deodorizers for the smell. Would also try to keep that ufo 6-12 inches from the plant. Any higher and the plants will stretch something fierce. Can't really tell the pot size from the pics but they look like 1 gallon pots. Also might want to add some clf lighting in there as it really helps led grows.

P.S It's usually better to grow more than one plant at a time cause stuff can and does happen (pests, molds, stress) the first few grows. Once you have everything dialed in your golden.
