i was in your positions just awhile ago....but all i can say is READ ALOT...learn as much as you can BEFORE you start growing...it will make the entire process alot easier to understand, and work with....
 
yep..your gonna need ALOT of light....i didn't think i was gonna need that much, but then i started to read up about lumens, and light intensity and whatnot...it's nuts...that's why i've chosen to stick with CFL's, cause i can customize my entire light setup instead of just one big light on top, and a few on the side..i can put lights anywhere i can setup a hooktie!!!

One simple route is a bag of peat redi mix.
1/2 peat mix
1/4 perlite
1/4 vermiculite

You can also throw in some worm castings if they are readily available.
