Hi @Raskalius and to AFN!

Your list looks good but I would focus on your methodology first. Are you going to try a water -only grow with your autopots or will you feed? Salts or organic? And how (topdress, feed in the water, etc)? Once you nail down how you want to grow, it will narrow your list.

Also, (although I'm not an autopot expert) I believe the consensus is the air domes are a waste of $$.

IMHO, YMMV, etc.

Regarding the air domes, I heard the whole system with their pipes/tubing was crap, but the domes alone with a round airstone running underneath the dome is a much better option, that's what I'll be doing
I want to used water through the 45 litre autopot irrigation system with mineral nutes

Ok. Good luck.

Dont forget to hand water for the first 20 days or so (when the leaves reach the edge of the pot) - before waering from the rez. The tap root needs to sink down first, or the little un won't get any water at all.

5 - Any other suggestions would be most welcome!

1. Most oscillating fans will do - they're only needed to air movement to rustle the leaves around.
2. Don't get a cheap chinese one, or one that needs to be calibrated by turning a screw - they're bad. Essentials make a decent budget one, and Bluelabs make an industry standard (more expensive) one.
3. I'd save your money. Unless running a sealed environemnt with heat over 80f with the extraction going off when CO2 is being released .. it's mainly getting sucked out the tent from your extraction (IMHO)
4. I'd go for a light mix soil .. make it easy on yourself. Plagron light, Biobizz light
5. Don't stress .. keep it simple... keep the nutes light... don't fiddle with it too much ^_^

Hope this helps

With all that equipment and advice, you'll be flying a jet in no time.
Blue's simple advice should be a sticky.
