Would buying the seeds offline be a good idea or no? i dont wanna be wasting 100 bills on seeds tht arent gonna be good, or that may not even show up ya know?

If you do buy seeds, don't get them sent to where your going to grow... also they have a good possibility of being good when you receive them... also... Here is formula to convert watts to amps, "The conversion of Watts to Amps is governed by the equation Amps = Watts/Volts" If the total amps excede the amperage the breaker is rated for, it will trip...

And when it comes to ferts, I think anything high in nitrogen low in phosphorous and high in potassium is good for veg. Then low in nitrogen, higher in phosphorous, and high in potassium is good for budding... I haven't used it but I hear Foxfarms ferts are out of control.. Might want to look into them...

amps are the number on the breaker common ones are 15 and 20.

Volts are the line voltage you are using in most cases its 110 - 120 volts
