You can get started for $300 and electric varies. Cost me $20 a month to run close to 500 watts worth of lights and fans even when running autos at 20 hours a day.

I have a cabinet that I grow 2 palnts with a 400 watt bulb with fans and light running my cabinet pulls about 525 watts at an electricity cost about $100 per grow, two clones cost $20 to $25 each, Nutes $35, R.O water $30, Coco $10 misc $35. So it cost me around $250 to produce a grow of two plants in my cabinet which yields me between 1/2 to a pound of high quality meds two to three times a year.
This breaks down to $15 to $30 per ounce.

Nearly any scagg weed dealer will let you have the seeds laying on the tray if you ask nice, walk your happy ass to the creek bank in spring......free if no one or thing gets em first....

Basically you can spend $100 or $1300 what you end up with in your closet depends on you...

Monthly Costs are going to range from $20-$50 or so for a personal grow for yourself.

That's largely dependent on the scale of the grow you want. And conditions you wish your plants to grow in.

Outdoor is by far the cheapest. Where you supply the best soil and ferts you like. And the sun does the rest.

In door can be cheap. Using a bunch of cfl and about 4 plants.

Hps will give more yield for cheap. But will jack your power a bit more.

Led is expensive. If you buy the good shit. But it's power efficient. Durable. And tunable in many cases.

My entire cabinet only uses 180w. That's both lights and additional power. Led rig.

Then you've got things like pHing water. And balancing nutes. And regulating Temps. And air flow.
