Hi there lads

I've finally reached that stage of being pissed off about the crap quality weed thats sold by all the uncaring growers & have decided to do my 1st ever grow.I'm gonna be using a tent 120x120x200 with intake fan & exhaust fan with carbon filter ,Klimavatore,soil,600w hps.Will be starting with 1-2 plants from seed & I have a few ?'s that I know you experts will be able to help me with.I'm UK based if that helps

1. will the tent be big enough for 2 plants
2.should I start the seed in soil or rockwool(is rockwool meant for hydro grows only?)
3.will the intake,exhaust & klimavator keep the temps correct or should I try an air cooled lighting system?
4.How much water should I be adding when the seeds have 1st been planted(plan to add 200ml every other day when they start sprouting leaves & moved into bigger pots 10-15 lts)in small pots??
5.what indica indoor seeds would you lads recommend??

Thanks

1. Are those dimension centimeters or inches?
2. Soil for the first attempt will be easier. Rockwell retains tons of water and easily over watered.
3. Air cooled is the way to go, the carbon filter will reduce the CFM of the fan, so plan accordingly
4. Just enough to keep the roots moist but not soaking wet. They don't like wet feet as seedlings.
5. Dealers choice, pick something easy to grow so you are successful. White Widow is a good choice or Purple Kush. I have had success with both.

1.cm's
2.so ok to seed in rockwool & then transfer to soil?
3.What is CFM?? & air cooled @ a later date but would a normal 600w hps be ok?
4 OK
5.Was thinking along those lines...maybe try the classic Northern Lights

2. That is fine, be careful of the moisture retention.
3. Cubic Feet per Minute - You can wait and see how the temps are.
5. A good choice.
