First you have to understand what you need to do in order. Without order there is only confusion.
If you want to do a successful INDOOR GROW this is what you NEED TO DO:
1. Get some SEED STARTER SOIL MIX.
This is a mixture of soil and nutrients strictly for the baby seedling to germinate and sprout successfully for the first two weeks.
2. You need to use PARTY CUPS either red or blue. These are almost the best pot shaped containers to USE so that the PLANT can ESTABLISH a STRONG and HEALTHY ROOT SYSTEM through out the plants life, from vegitative stage to the flower and budding stages to harvest.
3. Absolutely NO NUTRIENTS IS NEEDED for the first two weeks of the plant's life. Why? Because you DO NOT want to OVER FEED the plant nutrients while it is still young and tender. You can BURN the plant's roots and STUNT the growth of the plant, which will not give you the PROPER YEILD at harvest time. Also, in addition to NUTE BURN, you may come across MORE PLANT DEFICIECIES and may NOT BE ABLE to DIAGNOSE plant ISSUES. Keeping it plain and simple and basic is the STRATEGY New Growers should grasp in concept to entering into Grow Life Style.
4. For each plant that you grow you at least want to grow under (5) 26watt CFL spiral bulbs. With a ratio of (3) 6500K bulbs and (2) 2700K bulbs. This will give your plants two of the MAIN SPECTRUMS needed to grow your plants successfully. The 6500K is of the BLUE SPECTRUM. And the 2700K is of the RED SPECTRUM. You can read up more on these two particular spectrums of light from google and forums.
5. You have to have a GROW SPACE or AREA for the plant's invironment. And will have to keep it clean and sanitized to keep bugs and pest OUT and get a bottle of INSECT GNAT SPRAY. You gone NEED that.
6. If you are growing in a SMALL SPACE you only want to grow 1-3 plants. (Never plant two seeds in ONE POT!!!
7. You NEED to get you a HUMIDITY and TEMPERATURE MONITOR so that you can always better MANAGE your plant's invironment, temperatures, and humidity levels.
8. Before you PLANT your SEEDS make sure you do a WATER RUN OFF. You POKE (2) to (3) holes in the bottom of the cups and a few slits on the sides of the cups for aeration and oxygen flow. (Never plant SEEDS in DRY SOIL then WATER!!! The seeds will SINK DEEPER and take FOREVER to come up or can mold and rot. Always do a water run off (until you see some good drainage), then plant seed a NICKEL SIZE or HIGHT DEEP.
So this:
1. Seed Starter Soil for the first two weeks. Keep in mind to get your stronger soil as well because youll be transplanting in 2-3 weeks into 1-2 gallon pots. So get all soil and pots and have them ready for transplantation.

And you are GOOD TO GO.
Be patient and treat growing like a mature individual with purpose and determination to succeed in everything you do in life. GG.
