Perfect setup

Hey Guys. I am looking to start growing within the week. I have an idea for what I want in the space, but I first wanted to get as many opinions as possible before making the wrong purchase.

First off, I have a few options for location. 1) a detached garage (aprox. 7x12 feet) 2) a Closet aprox (3x6ft), or 3) living room area (10x6 ft).

Second, I am working on a budget of about $2000.

If you were to create the prefect setup given these variables, what would it be??

Bigger the better I'd grab a 1000w with a cooling tube what strain will you be growing?

id do your shop with a false wall and run 2 1000w air cooled

I'm not sure yet.. As a beginner I would like to work with a strain that is fairly tolerant of starting growers... I am open to recommendations of strain as well!

I loved my first"real" indoor grow lastyear because I was using whitwiddow witch seemd to be a pretty forgiving plant and the budd was premo! Can't wait to see this grow! Have u decided on what kinda light your going to use yet?
