Looking for advice on setting up a new grow.

So let me start by saying that not sure if this is where this should be or not and probably will be double posted on the indoor thread and then on the general growing thread.

So this is new equipment i got today. I got a viagrow 400 switchable ballast, cooltube, hortiluz blue mh bulb, 3x3 tent and 4 inch fan and carbon filter.

I plan on growing in soil atleast the first cycle for ease of growing...I have 14 clones of white widow that i know are female and that are showing new growth so i assume they have rooted been in soil for 2 weeks and a week in aerocloner before that.

I have the general hydroponics flora 3 part line along with floralicious plus, kool bloom liquid and powder and atami bloombastic. Soil amendments i have are bone meal, blood meal, fish emulsion, aluminum sulfate, and muriate of potash. not sure which of these and what combination i should use....Like i said looking for advice

Not sure if i should throw them all in there as a sog or just run about 4-6 and veg for a while then scrog it.

Any suggestions would be great and would love to hear any thoughts or comments.

Also does anyone know if cows will eat the sweetleaf...the reason i ask is last year i grew an outdoor plant and it was next to a cowfield and then one day there was 3 cows all around it and they were eating grass within feet of it but never touched the bush do cows not like it or did jah jah protect it?

You can either throw the 14 clones under it and flower them after a week or so of growth in tiny pots, or grow 4 medium sized plants. Your light only will really cover 4' x 4'. So try to envision how big the canopy will be at the end and go from there. Hope this helps!

i would either do 9 plants in 2gallon pots or 4 in 3-5 gallon pots. don't add all of that stuff at once. keep the TDM or EC of the food relatively low in the beginning. good luck.
