Im personally not a fan of fox farm OF....i prefer roots organics natural and organic 1.5cuft ($8-20)for young plants...and roll with promix hp black bag 3.8cuft $40......

also...house and garden or cyco nutrients are A LOT better, IMO!

for a new grower....doing a drain to waste program in a soil-less medium(promix hp, sunshine #4) is really easy! make sure you buy DRIP CLEAN...2ml/5gal after you ph the mix! with the drip clean you can feed nutrient every feed, with no water flush weekly! makes for better buds!

unless you arent worried about smell......120-150 will be the carbon scrubber alone.....just bought another one today....carbon filter (can 66) and 6" flange....$205! this one is just for the garage outside the room! haha...stankkky!

good call on the digi ballast...theyll be nice!

some food for thought.......!

One other thing to note Im not sure anyone has had any sucess with those Tangerine dream seeds. I have heard alot, alot of people say they don't even germinate. I personally will never try any of big buddah seeds because I bought a pack of Blue cheese seeds and NONE of them germinated.
 
wow! none germinated thats crazy, the tangerine dream i smoked last year when i was at the cup... it was great but i never really followed up on it, but **** it
i'll take what ever grows besides reggie and i do need a ph meter, and damn i underestimated the cost on carbon filter exhaust, but i gotta do what i gotta do!:cool:
 
i have bought the tangerine dream seeds and they germed fine...........buy the barney's farm one!

thats the coffee shop i bought the weed from last year when i went to the cup
last year, but will do thanks:cool:
 
I would recommend black buckets. White can let light through and encourage algae growth. I would forget item #7--put that money towards item #9 which you underestimated. You will need an oscillating fan for the space and I also recommend a speed controller for your exhaust fan. Don't forget a good quality insulated ducting, flanges, and clamps.
