agreed, the Northern Lights would be an awesome first grow for you, and enjoys a reputation of not being 'finicky' :thumbsup: ... I usually advise beginners to use 'bagseeds' first, make your mistakes when it doesn't cost ya major bucks ... if the expense doesn't limit, go for the NL ! ... after using the 2mil Mylar, never again ... from now on, I use white wall panels, or simply flat white paint (some prefer panda cloth, which is versatile) ... that Mylar is pricey, and dulls quickly with use ... by the time my Mylar was a year old, it probably didn't reflect half as well, as new (and, mine was brand-name DuPont Mylar $$$) ... good luck growing ! :thumbsup:
