You have to understand here that I live in the country, I don't have any good bookstores and can't get a book. I have scrounged around the net for info and this is where I'm verifying my data because not all sites are trustworthy. Half the stuff I've learnt is stuff I've read on this very site. I just like to clarify some things with real humans rather than something that was written on the internet three or four years ago. The way I see it this is what's going to end up happening for me:

-I am going to construct a 2x2x4 foot box from most likely plywood and two by twos
-I am going to invest into a good light, which from what I have read seems (in my case) to be the CFL (one plant, less heat for less quality; so I don't need a fan intake/outake system)
-I will put a lock on the box because my parents do let me have some privacy and barely even come near my room let alone in it and in the closet.
-The inside will look like the attachment I will add on.
-I will need to get more information on the lights, I am going to get the two bulbs for growing and flowering but need more info on them as I only know that I need two different lights...
-I have arranged for some seeds of a strain I don't know which I will use for my first and second plants. Also I have arranged for something called 'Purple Haze' which will be my plant I will grow later when I sort of know what I'm doing and know how to get a good yeild.
-Also I intend to get my hands on a microscope that will do at least 30X so I can see the trichromes and see what color they are, many thanks to psycho for putting up the chart in another thread.

See right now I don't know very much so I would be happy with 1/4 ounce harvest which from what I have read in a harvest would be really bad by most standards. I think I have this fairly well planned out minus the lights which I am still pretty foggy on.

EDIT: Yeah and I'm going to paint the inside of the box white if I can't find mylar, can someone give me a rough cost amount for this box? And as for ventilation, for one plant just opening it to water it and whatnot should be more than enough to give it fresh air right? Everything I have read so far has said that is more than alright for such a small grow.

For the growing I think I am going to want to go with 24 hours light for about three weeks and then 12/12 for flowering, does that sound even close to good or am I out in left field?
