LONG TIME TOKER FIRST TIME GROWER-CLOSET ScrOG

Hello .org ive been lurking for a few months gathering info. and i want to attempt a ScrOG grow. I still have a few things to get but right now i just have some bagseed going to get a method down so when i do germ my afghan kush,white widow,papaya,and nothern lights ill know what im doing hopefully and be able to get the most out of my set-up.
Here is a simple paint sketch to give you a idea of my closet set-up. Right now i only have the bottom area together since im only growing one batch with these seedlings then switching to the good stuff. lengths are in inches and are WxLxH

Pretty basic. id like to do 2 strains at a time 4 plant max in 2 gal pots during flowering. im going to use individual screens for each pot to make it easier to water.
forgot to modify the image but in the veg/clone room i want 2 2ft dual lamp t5s id like to be able to keep 2 mothers in there.

A few questions
1. Do i have enough space in my veg cabinet to house 2 mothers and there clones? unless you can clone a clone which brings me to my next question
2. Can you clone a clone. For example if i had no mother and just took clones from my vegging plants before i put them into flowering would that work? If so could i use the cuttings from when i "lollipop" the plants?
3.How high should my plants be before i train them? and do i need to top/fim?
4.What size containers? id like to have 2 gal containers in the flowering room but im unsure about the veg room. and if i have to have a mother what size container can i keep her in?
5.How much should i be watering my plants? i know how to tell when to water but im unsure on how much to water them. ive been told until water comes out the bottom, this just seems like alot to me.
6. the soil i mixed up for my plants has a spongy feel when i push my finger down into it. is that good? or is my consistency off. any tips of mixing fox farms ocean forest would be appreciated

I also need some help coming up with a feeding schedule. Im using fox farms soil nuts with fox farms ocean forest. to what i understand i dont need to feed for 30days. I just transplanted my bagseed the other day using this soil and a mixture of the soil it was started in just to keep the shock down. I used about 75% fox farms with 25% other stuff and add about 10% of a mixture of peat moss,hummus,and perlite so that makes 110%!! WOOT WOOT! :bigjoint:
anyways ive came up with this schedule after looking over the foxfarms schedule and a few grows on google.

-after 4th nod start feeding 1/2 strength G.B.(grow big) and B.B.(big bloom)
-ph water
-full strength G.B. and B.B.
-ph water
-continue until last watering before flowering then full strength G.B. B.B. and 1/2 strength T.B.( Tiger Bloom)
-ph water-enter flowering
-Full T.B. and B.B
-Ph water
-Full T.B. B.B. and G.B.
-ph water
-Full T.B. and B.B.
-ph water
-Full T.B. B.B. and G.B
-ph water for last 2 weeks of flowering

did i do that right?


Since im here my BagSeed is doing pretty good there 2 weeks from sprouts. I transplanted the other day and the roots look great. some were pretty long and hung down when i transplanted so i was very careful with them. They seem to be doing good, they showed no signs of shock afterwards and hopefully when i get off work tomorrow ill have to raise my lights. Im using a hydrofarms 2ft 8lamp T5 fixture. its a great light. has 2 lamp mods. i only used the center lamps when i had my plants in the starter pot then after transplanted turned on the after burner and they love it. im going to switch to the 2700k bulbs when i flower. Ill have my cabinet complete when there ready to flower. going to use flat white paint and mylar get as much use of my light as possible onto my screens.

Ive also been thinking about switching to a powerful CFL grow lamp for the veg room instead of tube florescent, looking for some second opinions on that though? i know 2 dual T5 fixtures will do the job but if i can get away with a good hood and lamp set-up that would be alot more efficient

thanks for checking out my post keep coming back for updates on my grow. ill post pictures one of these days
