I wanted something very simple, quick and user-friendly for 1st time grow. My goal is provide enough decent product for myself. After reading on the subject for awhile, I came to the conclusion that Lowryder #1 Feminized Auto would be a good selection.
My initial thoughts are that hydroponic with the "run to waste" system would work with one or two plants. I figure that one natural sunlight desk lamp Light of America 27w CFL should do the job for a light source for one plant. I can set up reflective material by using the shiny side of aluminum foil for the walls around the plant. Potting would be a red Solo plastic cup until moving to a small/medium pot. The plant will probably not get any large than 14 inches. Coir/cocopeat, a mix of perlite/vermiculite, ph UP/DOWN/and tester. I have not figured out exactly what nutrients might be best for a fast growing feminized auto like this Lowryder. Any suggestions would be most welcomed.
The set up will be in the corner of my office in an open closet. I thought keeping the ceiling fan on low would also be helpful. The office is usually kept around 70-72 on hot days via A/C, the hottest the office might get is 80-82 w/o A/C.
Any help/suggestions anyone can provide me with I would be most appreciative.
Below are the plant's specs.

Type : Indica, Ruderalis
Genetics : Williams Wonder / Northern Lights No. 2 / Mexican Ruderalis
Flowering Time : Short, Medium

Lowryder #1 is aptly named for its low profile (both literally and figuratively), Lowryder #1 was developed for extreme rapid growth (life cycle is 8 weeks from seed to bud), uniquely short height, and amazingly versatile. Lowryder is stable and reliable in its properties, a product of nine generations of selective breeding, and is non-deviant and hermaphrodite-free. Lowryder claims direct descendance from superior Williams Wonder and Northern Lights #2 indica, as well as a more exotic, virtually unknown short variety believed to be descended from Mexican Ruderalis, an experimental cross created over 25 years ago. Passing directly from the seedling to the flowering stage, Lowryder #1 altogether does away with the vegetative growth stage, in a process called autoflowering. In other words, when planted, it sprouts, grows a couple sets of leaves, then immediately and automatically begins flowering (males at about day 17, females at day 20). As a result, it is the quickest, most compact, and most discrete plant available. Having no vegetative stage, Lowryder cant be cloned or regenerated, for all intents and purposes. Replanting cannabis seeds is a must. But then, this plants unique advantages do away with any reason for cloning in the first place. It is an ideal parent strain, producing some offspring with its unique autoflowering traits. To complement its unique characteristics, Lowryders final appearance, taste, and high, have nothing to envy of the finer weed varieties, an excellent strain with high potency and good resin production.
