Ok seriously bro I'm a new grower and definitely looking forward in a long run dealing with pain and now I have to grow my own to medicate myself because it's a lot more cheaper than going to the dispensary but I'm truly looking for a few great option on what to give my plants the best food and nutrient for growing great plants

[@greendragonhydro]

yep there are a lot of great nutrient companies these days to pick from. FoxFarm like you mentioned is a good place to start. pretty forgiving with the plants and a good blend of organic and mineral base

Thats an awesome store... better than the ones around here

[@torrencekrepps757]

As for lights I hoping that I choice the right ones and they are the 1500w LED for a 5x5 area but I'm sure that it's smaller than it says

[@u812a]

i currently use 150 watt and want to go with QB lights... DO you know the difference between the two regarding heat... The 150 watt system is killing my tent (2x2.5) in the warmer months...

Check out the hlg100- 3k if you are flowering. We have them in stock if you are local. Great fixture for that size space, much more efficient and low heat.

[@torrencekrepps757]

Meaning Fox farm or something like this

2 600w sounds perfect, why would you say not?

[@greendragonhydro]

Yep you could do it. Downsides would be running 200 more watts (but better coverage👍), also potential for hot spots with a low ceiling. It would also cost more initially. 1000w on a mover gets solid coverage, no hotspots and best startup/running costs.
