Here's my situation: I want an inexpensive, small setup. Looking to grow only 1 or 2 plants at a time. I live in an apartment with a small backyard and patio (yard is about 10 x 15 feet). I have a 6 foot high fence all around the yard and patio. Neighbor is directly on other side of fence.

So my questions are:
-Should I grow inside or outside or do a combination?
-I am kind of confused about the veg/flowering stages. When does each stage start and end? Should I have light on the plants 24 hours a day during veg? Flourescent light, right?
-Do I definitely need an HPS for flowering? Or could I try to do that outside?
-Hydroponic or soil?
-These are the seeds I ordered (from seedboutique). Which should I try first? Did I order all the wrong seeds? I figured the feminized seeds would be easier for a beginner.
--Nirvana Seeds Standard Hawaii x Maui Waui
--Female Seeds 4 Packs - Easy Bud
--Female Seeds 4 Packs - Easy Sativa
--Female Seeds 4 Packs - Northern Light
--Female Seeds 4 Packs - White Widow

I want an relatively inexpensive setup (under 200 or 300 hopefully) that will have a yield good enough to make it worthwhile.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
ello m8 right i would do an indoor grow if you decide to do an outside grow it definatly dont want to be in ya back yard cause the smell will draw attention and ya dont want to be cault with that in ya yard
indoor in a closet or a big cupbaord
veg and flowering stages should be from seed at a vegging cycle of 18/6 light
for the first 2 to 3 months or up to half ya hieght in ya grow room using a blue spectrum bulb
then switch to 12/12 light up untill harvest under a red spectrum bulb and what ya wanna be looking for is milky coulour and/or amber colour crystals a 50/50 ratio of them would be good then harvest ya bud
you could use soil or hydro inside but if ya are a beginner i would use soil
one seed per 5 gallon pots using a bog standard potting soil not miracle grow cause the ferts in the soil can burn the leafs
and get a separate nutrient supply some thing like canna terra for vegging then get the canna flores for flowering
as for ya seeds i would start with white widow im growing white widow and they are going fine
but for all ya indoor future grows i would maybe get an indica strain they grow shortish and bushy and are easier to grow indoors
you did right in choosing feminised seeds cause they have a 95% chance of being female which is what we are looking for
also have a couple of fans blowing on the plants as this helps strengthen the stem which will help it take the weight of the bud
cheers hope this helps
tell us what ya end up getting and post some pics of ya setup you will get better advice with pictures
