I need some input from experienced growers

Hey guys so let me start off by saying I just joined, this is my first post and pretty soon it will be my first time growing!
Now that I got that out of the way I wanted to ask a few questions about my grow box and if it would be enough space. The box that I plan on growing in is about 6" long x 19" wide x 20" tall.
I just wanted to know if you think this would be enough room for a SINGLE plant grow. I also need to know if I would be able to yield at least an ounce!


I plan on putting the lights like this...

The only thing I plan on doing different is putting 2 exhaust fans on the top of my box and 1 intake on the side.(Maybe passive intake? let me know what you think will be best)
Right now I'm not sure on exactly what lights I will be putting in so any advice for the lights for my specific grow will be greatly appreciated! (Im on a budget btw)
Currently I am confused on what soil and how much/what kind of water.
I heard that lighter soils are good for young'ns and that I should buy distilled water? Another part that I am confused on would be the nutrients. I remember reading in some of the Beginner sticky's that you need nutrients, one high in nitrogen and the other high in phosphorus and potassium. If there is any other key information I am leaving out let me know! I read through plenty of guides and I have a somewhat solid grip on what I need, I just need that extra boost from someone to tell me what I need for MY particular setup! Thanks in advance...

PS: The picture above is just an EXAMPLE of how I thought my lights should be set up.
You can grow great bud with CFLs. Ideally I'd have a good 8,000-10,000 lumen set up for a stealth grow, but at least have 6500. Cool spectrum lights are used for veg (4000k I.e.) and warmer, red for flowering (2700k). The more the lights are already out around the plants, the better faster and denser the growth.
 
Actually, I was thinking the foam would give off bad fumes for the plant if a bulb happened to droop and touch long enough to get the styrofoam hot.
Also, I think the OP should do some reading on distilled water before he goes running out and buying some.
I stated that the picture was an EXAMPLE of how I wanted my lights
 
and PS to anyone reading I know what to do and what I want to do now so thanks for all the help! I'd delete the thread but quite honestly I have no clue how haha!
