Mad research, and this is my plan, seems to be working, opinions?

Well I am a new grower and noticed how much people love this hobby. Its really not about the money at all, I don't even smoke bud honestly, just love the passion behind it.

I have read many books from weedbible, to SOMA.

And this is my plan for my current grow. He/she is in its first week of vegetation and its going great. Its starting to grow its 3/4 leaves. Seams to be a sativa from the looks of it.

Anyways, I went out to the local hydroponics store and went shopping galore. Here is my setup so far:

2 Jack Horror/Maui wawi mix

Lights:
Vegetation period:
3x 26w CFL
24'' fluorescents (plant/day)
Flowering period:
3x 42w CFL
2x 26w CFL on each side of the plant(light up lower colas so I don't have to trim)

Soil:
Fox farm and I love it!
Hydroton to keep the air flowing!!

Temp:
69-80 degrees (night and day), humidity 40-60%

Nutes:
Vegetation:
Alg-a-mic Vitality booster
Nature's Nectar Nitrogen
Thrive alive B-1
pH level adjusted from 6.0-6.5
---I will feed every 2-3 days, but since I transplanted into a bigger pot (2.5gallon), it seems as though I have to soil feed because I will stick my finger in the soil and its bone dry.

QUESTION: ANYBODY HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF LITERS THEY WOULD FEED, ESTIMATED!??

Also, I WANTED TO PURCHASE SOME ROOT STIMULATOR BUT MY GUY TOLD ME THE ALG-A-MIC, or the THRIVE ALIVE WOULD BE PERFECT FOR THE STIMULATION. WHICH ONE WOULD YOU GUYS USE??? THIS IS ONLY WHENEVER I TRANSPLANT TO KEEP THE ROOTS HEALTHY AND NOT IN SHOCK.

Flowering:
7 gallon pot
Botanicare Pure Blen Pro
Alg-a-mic Vitality booster
The Guano Company
pH adjusted between 6.0-6.5
Foliar feed twice a week whenever needed
DynaGrow Neem Oil (just incase there are bugs but doubt since its in my closet, but you never know!)

Cloning:
Botanicare Power clone
Humidity dome with heated pad
3x 26w CFL
Fox Farm soil
Clone cubes

So what do you guys think? I think I went a little overkill on the products but I want my plants to look sexy! I have heard many stories here on GS that people over Nute the plants so they die, but I will make sure I dont. Through my Veg, and Flowering I will just feed water, feeding nutes will be definitely watched over.

i think I am on a good start, this is my first time growing and I am taking great notes on what NOT to do the next time. Can anybody give me some tips and their opinions please, it will be greatly appreciated! I don't give a f*ck even if it's bad opinions, I want it all!
