For just under 200$ you can grab a 4 pack of quantum 132 boards and 4 small meanwell lrs 75-36 drivers, that’s 300w from the wall of excellent led grow lights. The best bang for your buck. Here’s a super cheap example where I modified an old piece of shelving to mount 3 boards (2 132 and 120 quantum boards). I have a number of fixtures with a range of different boards, easily swapped. This is for a 2x4 tent

It was an option, nothing more, I see LED, I present a different option other than LED. I'm just keeping it real and cheap.

For sure. A very viable, well known, no guess work option!

You sure can. But your results may vary. Sone people have do e well with led bulbs. The rule I believe is 35w per square foot. Each 60w led is 10w. So 3.5 led bulbs per square inch.

Assuming your grow space is 1.5x1.5x3 (a little tent I recently made) that would make 4 bulbs work out almost perfect. But, more is better.

They would have to be real close, limiting your footprint. You want warm white for flower and bright white for veg.

Nutrients are like joining a church. Lots of passions about what's best. If cheap is what you're after, MiracleGro Tomato works fine at 5/8 tsp/gal. I've grown a plant from seedling to flower with that. Plants don't need multi-bottle lineups. You can do multi-bottle stuff with cheap, off-the-shelf stuff. I do that. If you want to get into that in the future I can talk to you more about it. For now, I would just use MG Tomato.

Or, if you have the time to order something, I use Grow More - Sea Grow (all purpose). It's cheap too. You just won't find it locally like MG. Others use Jack's Classic. It's cheap. Jacks has a Tomato product which might be better for cannabis. I haven't looked to see if anyone's using it.

I think the MG criticism is mainly about the potting mixes. They can be too hot (but the organic mix seems safe). Like I said, I grew with MG Tomato. (And, also Scotts being "big agra." I definitely prefer supporting smaller companies that seem to put more thought/care into their products. I mainly recommend MG Tomato because it's cheap and easily available. Other than that, I recommend Grow More or Jacks.).

Sea Grow is a blend of synthetic and organic. That's why I use it. I think all organic is too ambiguous about getting nutrients to the plant, amending the soil, etc. I try to have the best of both worlds that way. Most soil fertilizer are like that. Sea Grow is a little more organic-based than the rest.

Good luck.

Uh OP only wants a few ounces and wants to spend as little as possible to do it. One would think he wants to keep it small and cheap....

This is about as far away from what he requested as you can get. I'm sure he doesn't want an electronics project.
