Technique showdown!

I am no professional but I have some experiences in this Hobby. I'm wondering what techniques people use that could be considered simple or easy or low maintenance the produces some of the most killer best stuff out there with applying tested strategies whether or not it be lighting efficiency, veganics, low maintenance pH, etcetera... I plan on using a 400 watt metal halide high pressure sodium digital ballast and I am tossed between soil or coco coir as far as pH balancing is concerned. I do not want the maintenance of mixing soils or earthworm castings to feed or testing PPM but I'm just trying to produce solid stuff in my tent and was thinking about using the veganics line with og tea special sauce, root Webster, and rapid start in a perlite 30%/happy frog 70% mix. Now what are people's opinions on pH testers? Should I go with a meter or should I go the extra cheap route I don't know how to calibrate but I've always just used a good reverse osmosis water with additives. I know some folks out there have to have some good experiences with some low-maintenance low-stress good growing methods and I want to hear them. Please post grow logs or maybe even give a shout out to anybody that you think might have something to say. I'm intending on throwing down in a five by five by six and a half foot tall grow tent with a 400 watt. I know it's a pretty good-sized space with not much light but it will have to do for now as it is my first grow in quite some time and am just looking for something simple for once. I'm going to be popping some beans approaching middle of this month and would like to sort out the details between now and then as it is now going to be legal in my state for recreationally
