How are you doing guys?
i just wanted to say hi and hopefully recieve some advice!
Ive bin facinated with growing mj since i started smoking years ago.. but i love the plant in general i think its beautiful.
so im hopefully going to start growing after christmas and i was hoping you guys could help me out with a few things.

my plan is as follows:
i have limited room to grow plants so im going to have to get Dwarfs,
Green house seeds Green o matic cought my eye due to its small size and good price

Would this be a good strain to begin with?
i plan on purchasing 1 400 watt HPS lamp for lighting
and
Nutrients:
im thinking between koolbloom or Bud candy which would you recomend? i also have root juice handy.

im still not sure on what type of soil to use but im sure ill think of something :)
Recomendations?
im going to start off with 5 seeds and germinate 3 and grow them becouse i dont have the room for more then 3 at the moment.

What kind of results could i expect to see using the 400 wat on 3 plants?

Thanks in advance!

very good results, but bare in mind ,dwarfs only grow about 6 in tall , id pick another short auto and geta heavier harvest.

haven't grown that, but have seen a few journals and it looks nifty :)

you need to do a little more research on nutes. Those you listed are flower nutes, and at least the second one is a supplement as far I understood (not familiar with the first one you mention). You will need to either use organics that are mixed into the soil, or some sort of watering supplement to get the macro nutes (NPK). The water supplements are easier imo. The ratios you want those in differ from veg to flower, so typically each line will have a veg and flower nute, you'd need both.

Beyond that any of the 12 or so micro nutes that the plant requires will need to come from the soil or the water. Most of the good lines of nutes will include the ones typically needed.

Some brands to start out looking at would be fox farms, advanced, humbolt, techniflora, and there are a plethora more
