im planning on a dwc kit soon. two areas veg and bloom both 4x4 ive done one grow in the past but was many years ago

1. where are the best kits at? im thinking 4-6 plants, or at least 1/2-1 lb per grow. is that even possible?
2. if 4-6 plants what wattage? 250, 400, 600, 1000?
3. does the size of bucket effect results. 2 gallon vs 3.5 vs 5 ?
4. best yielding seed, in your opinion at least for indoor? seed bank?

i appreciate all feedback.

Everything depends on how much money you are willing to put into this op i would go with a 600w hps in the 4x4 you probably will want an air cooled hood, a can fan, maybe a carbon filter if you are worried about the smell. Then the essentials like ph reader, temp and humidity meter, nutes, soil the list goes on man you got a lot of researching to do and this site it full of information good and bad.

1. 1k light
2. Bucket space matters
3. Afghans and skunk strains yield hard.
4. Never had to use one of those.
 
I believe 100 watt per plant is the rule of thumb , attitude seed bank is what I use , size of bucket depending on how long you veg the plants , 3.5 good , 5 perfect , it's hard at least for me to buy all the stuff to start growing so buy you vegging stuff if u short on money , while vegging save money to buy cloning stuff and flowering stuff .
 
best website to buy growing stuff cheap is growannex , they have everything u need , I just completed buying vegging stuff today from them , they are very helpful and answers every question I ask them and they are best price , to give u an idea here is what i bought from them for vegging
