In that tent i would use t-5 bulbs in multi kelvins,The standard BP unit comes with 6 holes in the lid but i never use all of em (I would if i were cloning)I use 4.You need netpots,hydroton clay pebbles,rockwool,nutrients,i suggest the general hyudroponics 3-part flora.A submersible water pump with feeder tubes and water sprinkler hub..1/2" hose to connect the pump to the sprinkler hub and then tubes from the hub to the net pots..Go to www.stealthhydroponics.com and see everything they use on BP system,and get it,it can all be found at lowes-petsmart..You might need to order the hydroton and nutes if you aint gotta hydro store close by.

I know it seems a bit complicated but when you see the system you relize its not tuff to build. If you can afford it just buy the one online with the link purp gave you it will save you time. I would use a smaller container say around 6 to 8 gallons. the SH nutes are great and set up for that size tote. It also comes with directions from Roseman. What are you planning to grow? sativa or indica? what strain? you could also buy some autoflower seeds and skip the veg completely. With that it wont matter what light cycle you use to start it will just start to flower. Buy fem seeds to save yourself the heartbreak of growing 4 plants only to find out a month and a half in that 3 are males. sativa will take much longer and get way to big for that tent. Indica you can veg for a few weeks to a month then flower for 8-10 weeks. tent size is critical with BP you add 12" off the bat for the tube and another 12" for the lights so you will lose 2' of grow space. I wouldnt recomend anything smaller the 5', in fact if you have a closet or a room you can set up I would just forget the tent less worries down the road.
Good luck with your grow and be sure to keep us updated.

Get yourself another 18 gallon tote, poke 6 holes in it, plant 6 plants take cuttings from the six, be sure to mark which plant each cutting came from, while those cuttings are rooting, flower the first three "mothers"........then those three will show sex, and you'll know which were females~ you'll have at least two cuttings from the females...you can trash the males, or force seed them to supply yourself with multiple generations of seed! Then while those cuttings are vegging, that first crop will be well into its bloom, you'll have a perpetual harvest from then on.... of course you'll have to have yourself a little Veg room separate from the tent where you plan to flower....but is relatively simple to make a little veg/clone room once you see how your first set up runs....make sence? Not splitting hairs here...just splitting your harvest so you can double your first efforts...
