"NL Auto" first grow ever

Hello guys, this is my set-up for my first ever grow.

I got a northern lights automatic seed from royal queen seeds with a pretty low budget for growing. I would say it's more of an experiment than trying to grow the best possible plant. Here is my equipment:

- one plant
- regular plant soil
- regular plant nutrient for flowering
- 4x23w 6500k 1450 lumen (each) for vegetation
- 4x25w 2700k 1450 lumen (each) for flowering (total lumen for both are 5800)

The first 10 days the plant was under the 2700k lights because I didn't have the other ones yet. It is currently the 10th day since sprout and I have installed the 6500k lights. How is my set-up and how many (dried) grams may I expect to harvest?

your set up is "low budget" and if you're not trying to grow the best possible plant you probably shouldn't expect to harvest much.

okay good news first the NL auto from those guys is a great plant i have grown a few myself and they are nice very good sized autoflower and pretty stable.
the bad news is unless you follow someones grow journal exactly to the tee word for word and get it right (pretty difficult) no one on this forum can say how many dry grams you will have with any degree of accuracy but we can help you get the most out of your budget grow, just answer these questions.
-what size pot and whats it made of?
-be more specific wat kind of soil? from the ground? miracle grow??
-what are the 3 numbers on the fron of the nutrients the N-P-K?
-how far away are these lights from the plant?how are they suspended?

pics are nice too give as much info as possible and the forum will do the same
 
The soil is just the most simple soil I found in the store. Usually meant for flowers and small plants. It was about 2 euros for 10kg. The nutes are also most basic for flowers and small plants. The N is 7%, P is 3%, K is 7%. The bottle was around 4 euros. My budget is quite low as you can see. The light schedule is 18/6 and I have the lights about 15-20cm away from the plant. The way my ghetto grow box is set up, does not allow me to have them closer, but as the plant grows i will be able to. The pot looks like 5L and it's made out of plastic with holes on the bottom. See the pics below.
