First time grow (help)

Hey

This is my first post on a cannabis forum.
I have done a lot of research on cannabis cultivation
But I have no experience so I am far from flawless, what I have envisioned
I an indoor closet grow based on aerophonics.

My plan:

- 600W HPS
- 2 diy aerophonic systems 6 site each
- A wall mounted fan
- general hydroponics nutes following the Lucas method

Questions:

Best solution for clones and mothers regarding light and space

What kind of additives to use.

How to control pH levels in the reservoir

Also I am on abit of a budget.

I have found a good eye to the seedbank dutchbreed.com
So if anyone has any suggestions as to what strain to pick please
Speak up personally I am drawn towards Autumfall and Orange candy floss

if its your 1st time,why AEROPONICS?you should use soil...easier and tastier

This will interest you.............

i see,well good luck!(i meant no disrespect Hemmingway)im hoping to see some baseball-sized nugs.

you are going to need a way more powerful fan then that my friend

Non taken mate hopefully yes but I doubt it first time around
But I am all for the optimism

I don't believe I specified a fan but how power does it need to be?
In terms of circumference and rpm?

Its actully measured in CFM( cubic feet per metre) and for a 600 w you should have a CFM of 400 atleast...is the light air cooled?

Afraid not although this is still in the planning stages
For reasons such as this

you've never grown before and your trying aeroponics?? iv been growing for a while and im still in soil. was gonna try hydro next year and master that before trying aero. you must be an over achiever lol just kiddin

just make sure you got the ventilation, nutrients, lighting, temps and humidity down and your good to go, although humidity doesnt really matter as much as the others and make sure temps stay between 70-80

and id go with soil as well

soil is by far the easiest and most forgiving growing medium. but as always.....

*cubic feet per minute.
And I'd go with soil as well. Aeroponic can be overwhelming. Especially for a new grower. The more stuff there is to maintain, the more there is to go wrong.
