I recommend general hydroponics nutrient line up, there are 3 of them but I think you only need floragro and flora bloom, I know they are expensive.. but the main thing when sprouting a seed, from my experience, has been the pH of the water. So make sure to get pH up and pH down, and pH test either droplet or pH paper. Also as a new grower I would recommend picking an easy to grow strain. My first plant is on day 49 of flower and it is White Widow, which has been a blessing. I didn't know it was an easy growing strain when I made the purchase, but it has been really good to me.

get a ph buffering soil to avoid this... something with peat moss and dolomite lime will help with this... a great soil to use is fertilome ultimate if you can find it and its only only 8 dollars for a 24 qt bag....(big bag) ..... fox farms ocean forest is also a good option....
 
Since you are in the UK.....

soils...

Canna
Plagron
Bio-bizz

Nutes
Canna
Plagron
bio-bizz

all 3 are used by varying UK ppl on the site, all work well etc
 
Thanks for the replys everyone, I am just worried I will get it really wrong.

Thanks for the reply, in regards to the pH I am struggling with this as some ppl don't mention much what am I looking out for
 
@Flutterbie1 the pH of the water should be between 6.0 and 6.7 always but preferably between 6.2 and 6.5, feel free to pm me if you have more questions. I just went through the whole process of setting up from ground zero, and now I'm about 2 or 3 weeks away from my first harvest.
 
Fairly new myself m8.I've been using bio biz all mix soil & Bio bizz grow & bloom..I pop the seed into final pots & let em do there thing.Water when pots drying out & start feeding em from week 4..Feeding chart on the back of the bottles labels..Good Luck!
