In a 100x100 tent you could fit 4 auto flowering plants in there nicely. Probably in the 80x80 too but it might feel a bit tight. And the plants leaves may overlap a little. Good luck buddy.
Personally I would buy some good quality soil (biobizz or canna) and a sample pack of biobizz nutes (root, grow and bloom) and that's it. No need to watch pH in soil grows.

Good morning mate. Make sure you get a high quality tent. Check Green-Qube tents. I am using one and they are amazing. The lights you have already said you bought them. Have you considered carbon filter and extraction? And what pots are you using and nutrients?

thanks for all the useful tips guys, i am checking out everything you mention.

@Bulls the Green Qube tents are a little pricey for me, was looking to spend no more then roughly £40-70 on the grow tent, otherwise i wouldnt be able to afford the rest of my stuff.
also about carbon filter i was looking at some kits on ebay and amazon, they are full kits with the fan carbon filter and ducting tubes and clips, they were around £30-£90 but i think i found a nice one for pretty cheap too, in ebay its called
" 4" In Line Fan Carbon Filter Duct Kit Hydroponic Grow Room Tent Ventilation Plug"

i would surely need one to hide the smell since i will be growing indoors, have no idea how to install it yet but i guess that will come down the road later!

pots i didnt get any yet and same with nutrients, i was looking at what @ohlordyeah_420 was mentioning but having a little trouble finding the right one.

@ohlordyeah_420
what i managed to find on their website:
BioBizz - Root-Juice

BioBizz Bio-Grow

BioBizz - Bio-Bloom

BioBizz Light-Mix Soil
is this the right kind of soil?

having trouble finding the sample pack with only grow root and bloom, most of them include other stuff, the closest i found was this.
i was looking at their website and it shows STARTER PACK
"Each pack contains:
1000 ml Bio·Bloom™
1000 ml Bio·Grow®
500 ml Top·Max™
250 ml Bio·Heaven™
250 ml Root·Juice™

idk if this is the right sample pack but its got bloom root and grow but top max and bio heaven idk what to do with them and i think with them included the price is going higher lol maybe im better off just buying them seperately i have no idea.

sorry for the long post guys im just taking into account everything your telling me and searching up about them all ^^

my next step is to really find a tent today, i want to buy one today or tommorow so i need to make my mind up, my tent budget is £40-70 if you guys know anything around that price please let me know otherwise i might just buy the one i posted earlier

Good work mate

When it comes to extraction and carbon filter its 100% worth getting something of good quality the first time. The kits you mentioned are kinda false economy as you end up upgrading everything pretty soon

Try take a look at something like the RVK fans or the RAM fans and something like viper for a filter. It's a bit more money but it will work alot better for alot long, saving you money really

I just gave you what I think is the easiest option to grow cannabis for yourself. 3 x simple nutes (one for root growth, one for veg growth and one for flowering) if you use these along with a few 10/12 litre pots with good soil it's pretty simple to grow yourself some autos.

My best advice is to read up on growing. start with some of the 'how to' guides on here and devour everything you can. I read all I could about growing for about 6 months before I bought my first seed. Don't run into this without knowing all you can otherwise you may make some mistakes (which you'll learn from) and waste some of your time.

Oh and listen to the guys on here giving advice, I've only been growing a year myself and they've helped me along every time I'm stuck!

Most of all enjoy growing, it's a very rewarding hobby/ lifestyle.

You have some very good info in here already to get yourself off to the best start possible fella, Great advice being echoed all round

Tip of the day: Buy cheap you buy thrice, Keep that in mind when making certain purchases in this hobby of ours, some wise choices will offer massive safety nets and will make you journey a hell of a lot easier from the off. Getting your environment right first is crucial, however there are many things to consider whilst trying to achieve this, but you are certainly in the right place to learn.

a little update, bought a 5 inch fan and carbon filter kit containing:
Contains
1 x Ram Mixed Flow Fan (choose between 4-inch, 5-inch, 6-inch or 8-inch)

1 x Rhino Hobby (sized to match your choice of fan)

1 x 5m length of ducting (choose aluminium or combi ducting)

3 x duct clips

Please note: the colour of your RAM fan may be slightly different to the one shown in the main image



i was going to get the 4 inch fan because i thought my growtent was prettysmall but still i was told better be safe with 5 inch! and on sunday will start to germinate the seeds, once i set up the growtent and etc

i`m hoping to make a diary out of it with plenty of photos for you guys so will have a new topic soon in the future
thanks for some of the best advice guys
