Yeah they ain’t cheap but it can be well worth it. Don’t upgrade until you’ve mastered your environment, watering, soil and nutrients, then pay out on the light. Solve the cheaper variables first.

Ya that's basically where my thinking was at.
No need spending money on upgraded stuff when I don't know how to run the basics yet lol
Building a garage with dedicated grow room next summer, by then I'll have a few grows under my belt, will prob look to upgrading lights for the new space. Not before tho.

Yeah pay attention to the balance of temperature and humidity. Get that environment as close to optimal as you can based on a VPD chart. You can google any basic VPD chart on google to match your temperature and humidity in optimal ranges. I highly recommend going organic if you choose a soil medium, so easy you just add pH water in range of 6.0-6.8. I use fox farm as a base soil and mix in a super soil nutrient blend from nature’s living organics into the bottom third of the finisher pots. At most I add recharge or mammoth p bacteria products to enhance the bacteria in the soil late in the grow, or I top dress with bloomcity organic fish fertilizer if plants need it, but this is extremely rare. Mostly, I just water. Thats it.
