welcome to RIU! the great thing about this place is you are going to get a wide variety of answers.
I would highly recommend starting off with reading https://growweedeasy.com - they do a really good job breaking things down very simply.
I would recommend skipping straight to using a premixed super soil from a known brand that works good for cannabis. something like this would be great and make so you just need to water the plants, no extra bottles or fertilizers needed:
BuildASoil Potting Soil Version 3.0
BuildASoil 3.0 Heaviest amended soil recipe was designed with the “Water Only†grower in mind. Based on Logan Labs soil testing we designed a soil with more everything. On Sale Now!
buildasoil.com
there are some other great brands but that is a really popular, cant mess it up choice.
I also agree that using a SIP (self irrigated planter) like an Earthbox will take all the guesswork out of watering:
Planting Boxes | Container Gardening | EarthBox
Best planting boxes for container gardening. Great for all types of container gardening plants like tomatoes. Self-watering. 100% satisfaction guarantee.
earthbox.com
as for specific strains, one of my close friends has CKD and he definitely prefers very heavy indicas. Gelato comes to mind as one of his favorites, and is a pretty easy to grow and decent yielding strain. Lots of different breeders have crosses of this available right now. Ill let the other folks suggest best place to buy seeds.
Good luck cant wait to see your grow!
Could you recommend some titles and where I might buy them? Thank you for your input!

no problem! there is definitely a little learning curve but since you already know how to grow plants, you are way ahead of the game. for a lot of people coming here, they have never grown anything before.
growing from seed does pose some challenges since not all genetics are "stable" and may produce many different phenotypes. for some people this is desirable, for others this can be too far off the mark of what they were looking for. you can also choose between "regular" photoperiod strains, or feminized seed which will be all females. Again for many folks they have no desire to breed plants or make seeds, so all females can help them get buds easier since they won't need to weed out males. In your case, if you plan to breed your plants and make your own seeds, then a photoperioid strain is what you want.
there are a million different grow styles, and lots of different techniques. I definitely think supersoil + a SIP pretty much makes the hard part foolproof. you can tweak from there. the only other suggestion if you dont already have one, is to start a worm bin so you have a steady source of worm castings to top dress and re-ammend your soil.
