After 1st harvest sell a little then ill get the light(it was almost 200$)

I'd be careful mentioning street sales around here. For one thing, it's against site rules.

If you haven't recieved the seeds already, I'd start some bagseeds to see what problems you come up against. Plus, you won't be killing expensive seeds trying to learn how to grow.

I'd recommend you start small, and build as your experience grows. Many setbacks are likely, and over-exuberance can destroy your chances for success.

Figure-out the growspace before worrying about the indicators of your ladies being sick. It can take years of gardening before you become proficient at self-diagnosing.

A newbie is lucky to get an ounce from a 3 gallon plant. 3 oz. per plant, (post dry-n-cure) is highly unlikely.

Instead of hanging-out in the plant problems section, you might want to check-out some of the grow logs for ideas and tips.

Fans are great for air circulation, but ventilation is just as important. Passive intake low in the closet...fan-forced exhaust up top.

What soil and nutrients are you planning on using?

Soil i am not sure yet.
Nutes botanicare Pure blend pro bloom, cal-mag, hydroguard, and clonex clone solution

I see you've got lots of good answers here. I agree with reading (lots of) threads on this site that are like the grow you're doing. Also check out the websites for internet grow stores and check all all the stuff available and compare thngs in general. There are threads where folks have recommended a few good vendors. Try HTG Supply's website to see all the soils, lights, nutes, etc.

Looking forward to seeing your plants tearing it up.
