For your 1 plant, I would make the box 2' by 2' by 3.5', and add another light or two..

Your soil already has what you need to get to flower, since you are growing small.
For flowering, you should use something with a higher 'P' number.
The ones I use are 12/8/2 for veg, and 1/10/0 for flower.
That's actually pretty extreme.
Some people use 30/30/30/ all the way through with no problem.
Start out using 1/4 strength from what's recommended the first time, then gradually use a bit more the next time.
Also, figure 1 gallon of soil per 1 foot of expected growth. So in your case, #3's should be ideal.
