    Hey smokers.

    This will be my first grow and I'm planning on purchasing the new equipment soon. And I need help with a couple of things. First a little info:

    My grow space is a wardrobe that's 50x100x240cm (about 1.5x3ft and 7.5ft tall). I'm planning to run Super Lemon Haze and Northern Lights + maybe one more.

    Equipment so far is this:
    1 x Nutriculture Gro-Tank 205 NFT
    1 x 400 W Osram Plantastar HPS
    1 x Ruck fan 345 cbm/h ø125
    2 x Active Carbon PK 44 4mm - 1 Kg
    1 x Canna Aqua Vega A+B 0,5 l
    1 x Canna Aqua Flores A+B 0,5 l
    1 x Canna PK 13-14 250 ml
    1 x Min-Max-Thermo-Hygrometer digital meeter
    6 x Black&White foil
    1 x Hanna EC meeter
    1 x pH-Testkit
    1 x Rockwool 4x4cm (10pk)
    1 x Rockwool 10x10cm (10pk)
    1 x Plagron pH min 0,5 l
    1 x Plagron pH Plus 0,5 l
    1 x Microscope 30x

    Am I missing anything important?

    Do i have room for two or three plants?

    Will there be a problem if I run two or three different strains in one NFT tank? (I'm growing for my own use, so variety is a must)

    If I go for two plants, should I go for a vertical or horizontal light setup?

    I'm planning to run the HPS from start to finish, from what I read on this and other forums that's ok, if not, should I get a MH light for the veg?

    Is 400W max for my setup or could I go for a 600W light setup?

    Should I add a air pump straight away or will it be ok to run the first run without? (money is tight, that's why I added PH-test kit and not a PH meeter)

    Thanks a lot for the help! :smoking:
