First grow ever. I cant be more exited

I've been super intereseted in doing this for years, but never actually thought I'd do it. Finally, I'm in a place where its possible. At first I was looking at growing indoors, but space is a little tight so I decided to do one indoors and one outdoors just to see what happens. I bought 5 Zkittlez seeds from MSNL along with two free Autoflowering Caramelicious seeds. I donn't know as to when to actually start, because I leave on a 2 week vacation on june 20th which is 12 weeks from now. I was thinking of growing the auto indoors and harvesting before I leave, but I dont even have a tent at the moment. I got given a few hundred dollars worth of growing lights which would be way overkill for me, I only intend on twoish plants at a time. The lights are 2 315W LEC lights, a 1000W LEC (I think), and a 400W LED light along with a bunch of things that are for them but I honestly have no idea what they are or do.
I'm not sure if I should sell them because there is no way I'll be able to use then all, or if I should keep them and just see what happens. The only things I have for growing at the moment are the lights and the seeds and a few hundred dollars. I don't know where to start.

I live in Oregon, and I have no idea how the sunlight and temperature will be during the summer for the plants. Sorry this is a complete mess, but I haven't been this exited for something in a long time. If you have any tips or advice that would be greatly appreciated.

I've been thinking on making some money from this but not from bud. After a little searching online it looks like selling seeds is legal, and if I could make a few bucks on that I might grow some more. I don't really know if your buds can have seeds and bud at the same time, but I'm a light smoker so I wouldn't need much bud to get me through the year.
 
Autos take 10-14 weeks so you got like a 50/50 shot of them being ready before your vaca. You got way more light then you need for 2 indoor plants. If shippings not ridiculous I might be willing to buy one off ya.
 
I'd run the autos outdoors and the photos indoors but that's just me.
Don't go off the breeder times, it very rarely works that way and ends up with people harvesting early a lot of the time.
 
Maybe start with growing some weed that's a smokable first before you start counting the dollars rolling in....
Sounds like you're not ready to grow yet. My advice, is either just run outdoor for now and get everything you need together before trying to run indoor with 1/4 of what you need. Initial investments are generally more than just a couple hundred bucks. I understand it's exciting and you wanna jump in running but best to learn to crawl before you walk and walk before you run.

Thankfully I got someone who would be able to water them while I'm gone.
As for the lights, The 1000W is the Sun system Yield Master 11-6" Classic. I have the ballast for it which is the Harvest Pro remote ballast 1000W SW, and the light for it: HORTILUX super HPS grow lamp 1000 WATT. I'm having trouble finding the exact model of the reflector bit.

For the other two lights, they dont have a label anywhere on it, but the ad listing for it said Hardcore LEC, and they came with one ballast each: Hard Core LEC 315 WATT 120/240v remote ballast.
there is lights in both of the 315W ones, i'm not sure the exact ones. All of the lights turn on.
