Nutrients?

This is my first grow and I am currently getting ready to grow 2 plants in a grow box (3 by 2 feet and 3 ft tall) in my shed, i was wondering:-

1. If anyone could recommend a good strain to buy online for this kinda space?

2 watering and nutrients?

I am planning on using miricle grow potting compost with some pearlite and 8 20watt cfls , (6500k for veg state and 2700k for flowering)

**I would prefer the strain to be non auto flowering **

Re: Nutrients?

With that space, I'd look to get an indica or indica-dominant strain. I like Northern Lights. What do you mean, "watering and nutrients?" Water when it's dry two inches down, use nutrients every other watering. Read other posts if you need to know what kind of fertilizers to use when/
