I would sell that light and get something else, looks to be useing a lot of old tech and for w/e reason it is way over priced. https://www.opticledgrowlights.ca/products/new-optic-8-gen-3-700-watt-dimmable-led-grow-light-uv-ir I like growing in soil. Amendments are great and how I normally feed but its also good to have a liquid option for feeding it things available immediately. Turn the OSC fans to not oscillate as they are what cause majority of tent fires. poor design unless you get nice expensive ones and even then they still wear out. Set them on their own timer as well if possible so they are not on 24/7 Overwatering is a big thing indoors and with soil as it tends to hold more, so be cautious with your watering habits.

Can you specify what piece of advice you need? Could be anything honestly and its way too complex of a topic to give you a general answer on what to do here. I would say watch some youtube videos or read a book if you have no idea in general, otherwise please specify your question and make a grow report.

i'd add more perlite to the ocean forest stuff. soil is like riding a bike, so take note of what you are doing and when you are doing it. the soil will probably feed your plants well for 4-6 weeks or more. then you have to slow ramp up fertilization to supplement it. this is the learning to balance part. if you want do it conservatively, start with 1/4 strength when you start to see a hint of deficiency on lower leaves. take note of how many days or weeks into grow... keep adjusting up only if you see a deficiency creeping in. It's always easier to add more and incredibly more difficult to deal with a toxicity. After the grow you adjust the timing of your ramp up to hopefully avoid any issues creeping in over time... seeenig the true outcome of our fertilization choices sometimes take a week or even several weeks to see the full outcome of that adjustment. the slower moving the symptoms are, the smaler the adjustment necessary. just gotta do it.. with soil, too many local variables are different to give a one-sized-fits-all on exactly how to fertilize.
