Newbie/Noob/Nub!

Hey all! so, this is going to be my first grow hydroponically and I would greatly appreciate some pro/expert/guru advice.

Here is a list of items/equipment/material I will be using...

1. 400w Hps/Mh conversion w/ ballest from HTG.
2. EasyCool 6" Reflector from HTG.
3. GrowBright 6" Inline Fan & Charcoal filter combo w/ ducting from HTG.
4. 2 - 140 CFM Inline fans from Home Depot, for Intake.
5. The Secret Jardin DarkRoom120 from TBT.
6. GH Micro & Bloom w/ PH/up/down Test indicator from TBT. (using Lucas's method.)
7. A Hanna Digital PH/EC/TDS Meter, from Ebay.
8. Now I've read several posts about Stealth Hydroponics being a dishonest, and unprofessional business, and it seems to be true... I ordered a DWC Basic Kit, 4 Gal. Res. And it's already been over a week from today. When I called to see what the problem was, they said it had to do with PayPal taking a few days to process the payment... BULLSHIT! anyhow, the guy said it was being shipped out today, or possibly on Monday, because the shipping where-houses are closed one Sat. Sun. But when the Kit does arrive, it's a 4 gallon res, with 4" net pots at each corner of a rectangle bucket. I've also heard it would be a better idea to add a few more Air stones which I plan on doing.
9.CO2.... Hmmm I was just planing on using some sort of homemade bottle of stuff, since my budget is dry. If anyone knows of a inexpensive CO2 source other then vinegar and suger, please let me know.
10. Almost forgot, was thinking of a bushy, short, indica strain, lowrider/blue mystic or something of that nature with auto-flowering.... still haven't decided. (Recommendations Greatly Appreciated for a Perfect Strain, Please!)

SO. If there's anyone out there that would like to add some advice, recommendations, consulting, Anything Please! I'm new to growing hydroponically and every little bit of knowledge goes a long way.
Sorry if i over explained myself, just want the best yields/tastes/quality & quantity I can obtain.

Again thanks for reading this post, post whatever, even if you wanna talk some shit... I'm good with it. lol!

Never smoked them, however if it's a shorter bushy type of indica i would consider trying it.
my main concern is growing in a 4x4x6.7 using DWC tubs or buckets and how many plants can grow with good yields under a 400w hps/mh in that minimal amount of space, for personal use not commercial, I was thinking 4 indica's max with significant yields...
