Hello everyone,
I'm new to growing and all aspects. So far I have spent time reading for the last few weeks and have come up with my basic starting equipment list. let me know what you think.
secret jardin lodge 120 ( 3x3x 5plus a side room 1x3x5 for clones )
2 mars hydro 300 led 140 watt actual each
1 ufo 200 led 90 watt actual
4" inline fan 190 cfm 51db
2 clip on fans
4" activated carbon and filter insulated ducting
fan speed controller
light timer
cables for hanging and moving the lights

I am going to go with 4x 5 gal pots. growing 2 northern lights fem and 2 white widow fem. I am thinking to grow in coco perlite mix. just searching for the right chem list. if you see anything realy wrong with my list or anything let me know thanks

Go hid or get a bigger led light imo. Also gh maxI series is very cheap nute and works great. I also suggest soil for now. Ocean forest works great.

Instead of the marshydro. Get a 315 cmh. Perfect size for a 3x3. Way better light. I have never done a coco perlite mix. If you are doing hempy you only need 2 gal containers. Google that. GEn hydro is a good product

my concern with a hid or most types of lights is heat. not to mention the cost of hydro in Canada is real bad. thanks for the input so far.:clap:. So 4 plants is too many for the space? would I be better suited to only do 2? in 3 gal pots.

Those lights are absolutely suitable for 4-5 medium sized plants.. I would also suggest looking in to autoflower's. Auto's+LED's seem to work the best IMO

From what I read thus far auto are not great for yield. please correct me if I'm wrong. I seem to see most ppl control their grow with lighting and have much better yield .

Auto's are usually medium sized plants, that's I why I grow auto's under my LED's.. Fast growing plants with a decent yields are what I am looking to grow! I have two 600w LED panels which is equivalent to about 500 TRUE watts.
