Just by reading around you'll realize that even small grows need quite a bit of light, what are the specs on yours?

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.
