There are many different light options out there. As a first time, i suggest the CFL. They are the cheapest and easiest to maintain. I suggest you grow in soil, or coco. I use coco and it is friggin awesome and will help a first timer not overwater. You need to find a place that is light tight. Buy a 13 dollar meter from lowes that tells you how wet the soil is. As babies, they don't need too much water as they get older, they will. The simple meter will let you know when to water and whent to leave it alone.
Remember, it is a weed, not rocket science.
