Grats on getting the cab set up. You know about the bulb you are using now so we can move on. Looks like you will want to watch out for the weight of the little girl. She looks a bit top heavy for that little bity leg of hers. She is trying to stretch to light that is not there and if this is the only light she gets it won't take long for her to get 10". I agree it is probably a bit too early for a HPS light, but it's pretty much all you got. Fire that bad boy up and see what happens. Just have it up as high as it can go till she gets 3-5 nodes. And yes, those little yellow leaves at the bottom will fall off, no biggy, they are just the pre-leaves (forget the actual name). The next set or 3 leaves will probably fall off or end up too small and you will prune them.
Good choice on the bubble bucket, I like them pretty well. I would suggest a scrog. And 50g in a scrog is a very....very low estimate if you do it right. I would think, with your space and a good scrog, you could get 5-8oz easily. I got about 6-7oz of bubbledust scrogged in a 20x36inch cab and about 4-5oz another round LST'd. I know it's a different strain, but you have more space than I did. But, you can't be disappointed with low expectations. My cab temps varied because the 400watter was not air cooled. They were anywhere from 87-95ish degrees. I had no water cooler and did nothing to prevent the water temp to rise. But once your baby girl gets some size on her, her fan leaves will shade the rez and shouldn't be much of a problem.
As far as your water level and nute ?'s....Until she gets quite a bit bigger, you won't notice much of a drop in your nute level. Just check the levels every couple or 3 days and top off with regular water and ph it to around 5.8-6.2 and you will be fine. Once a week test nute strength and increase slightly. I changed my water/nutes out completely every 2 weeks. It's nice to have a 2nd bucket ready to go so you only have to change out the air hose and put the plant in the new, clean bucket with the nute solution ready. Once you are in full bloom she will probably use 1+ gallons/day of water. It looked like you were using the drops to test the ph...if you can swing it, invest in a digi pen ph tester and if you don't already have it, a tds meter too. You might be able to get away without them, but I would have ruined a couple by too strong of nutes without them.
Again, grats on your cab, hope everything goes well and if you have any questions, feel free.
