ALRIGHT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT....ILL TAKE ONE FOR THE TEAM SINCE IM BORED...

lights-if its your first grow start out with a couple 42watt CFLS (get them at homedepot)

Soil-also at homedepot you might find Scotts Seedling starter with Added phosphuros. this soil is very gentle on seedlings.

Seeds-either buy some off the internet Gypsy Nirvana's Seed Boutique or Cannabis Seeds at Auction!, they ship to the USA or if you bought some weed from a dealer and found seeds in it you can use that.

pots- also from homedepot. general rule of thumb is for every gallon=foot. i.e. i use to use 5 gallon buckets so it would be suitable to grow a 5 foot plant

Nutrients-i use foxfarm GROWBIG and BIG BLOOM from a hydro store. different people use diff nutes.

now for your homework Cupnoodles......."reading around" will take longer than an hour or two.......took me a couple of months.....but as you can read in my signature knowing how to do something is not the same and actually doing it. it might take a couple of trys with trial and error.....but its the experience that counts and not just reading. goodluck in the future
