Ok,

I would start in a closet. Something about.... 4'x4'x8', typical closet. Then eBay has awesome prices on lighting equiptment. For a space that size you can use just about any wattage you wanted. I would start with a 400w MH for veg and a 600w HPS for flower. Wal-Mart has these emergency camping blankets that run about $2a piece and ar 84"x84" or somethin, they're huge. Get a couple of those and line the walls with those as a reflective material. Your gonna need goood ventelation also.. Again while you are on eBay look up some blower fans, get the ones that push 250+ cfm, that will insure good exhaust and heat exchange.

As far as strains. I would start with something like indica. They mature faster and grow shorter. there are millions of websites to choose from or if you just have some bagseed from a decent bag of weed try those. If you get a good mother start cloning her. Cheaper that way. If you want to buy some seeds off the net then go with something that has a good harvest ratio. Most plants can produce close to 16oz a plant. if you have four plant in flower at a time and 4 plants in veg that are 2-4 weeks from flower. Then you can harvest well over what you need.

Do a little research on what strain you would prefer and look into some of the prices for stuff. Like hydro or soil. If you go with soil.... "FoxFarm" is the ABSOLUTE SHIIT!!!

Good Luck, and keep us posted!:greenthumb:
