newbie grower starting closet grow

hey guys not sure what strain to go for starting a closet grow?? jus got a deal for some lights off of a friend 400w plus ballast for a cheap price and not sure what strain to go for? my closet is jus under a meter wide just over a meter deap and jus over two meters in height so have a little room to play with, as this is my first grow and not sure how many to grow for the space i have , i know im gonna use soil instead of hydro and friend sorting me out with neuts im looking for a descent yield, but dont want my closet over grown lol any all suggestions or tips will be greatly appreciated. thanx guys

consider proper ventilation, how to get co2 in, cleaning and sterlization of the room, pest prevention, get familiar with deficiency issues and how to identify them early on. remember you need to seperate spaces to growing, one to veg and one to flower. what are you using for lights? what are you going to use for a grow medium? nutrients? timers? fans? time? pH balanced water for feeding?

Take a look at the threads over here: https://www.rollitup.org/seed-strain-reviews/

Honestly, don't worry too terribly much about CO2 in and stuff. I'd start off growing some bagseed so you can get the hang of it without losing good seeds you paid for. Get some ph strips to test the water you use (if it's tap water, ph balance it to 5.8-6.2 and let it sit over night uncapped and use it the next day.) That way, you can de-chlorinate the water and it'll be balanced. Then you can just keep that baseline and bc your tap water is consistently balanced from the city. For soil, don't skimp out and use miracle grow, go with something from happy frog or foxfarm. Think about utilizing your vertical space to separate your flower and veg spaces if you are trying to do both at the same time. Get a timer for your light but make sure the inlet on the timer is the same as your ballast (easy mistake to make lol). Basically, my advise is to do research. People don't do it enough and just about every question to have or problem you run into has been asked and dealt with before on this or some other forum.
Happy growing!
