New Grower First All LED GROW

[FormaKnownAs]

I am in the design phase of my first all LED Grow. Here is some preliminary info:

Lighting:
150 watt generic LED growlight
2-DIY 100 watt cob leds Pendent Style

I still have to work almost every other detail out. I'm thinking a grow area about 6 ft2 garden area (2x3). I'm thinking my 3 lights are going to give an output of about 35k lumens considering all my LEDS are low cost Chinese units.

I plan to use 3 Autopots with Airdomes. These too will be DIY. I plan to purchase an Autopot 2Go kit. It's basically the fittings and valves required for an Autopilot. You supply the hoses, trays, pots, etc,. I plan to use 5 gallon buckets with 10" upside down collanders for the Airdomes. Yes, I'm working on a very minimal budget....

Input please!! Y'ALL ARE AWESOME! THANKS

Does anyone have any experience with Roots Organics? Looks pricey for me. But, the ingredients list is impressive. To be honest, I generally use a decent peat based poting soil amended with 30-40% perlite. It's inexpensive and reliable.

Then there is CocoTek. Is it used with hydrotron? Or just expanded and used exclusively?
