Ya I spent a couple hundred on my first setup, only to have it collecting dust right now 
Hydro setups are real good, if you want to put it the effort, by effort I mean: Changing res, keeping pH perfect, Keeping nutes in check, avoiding algae. It's really not all that bad once you get the hang of it. I guess I never did tho 
I like my organic soil. The slow releasing nutes, allow me to hold off on the extra nutes, till about flowering, or a little before depending on how long I veg. I find soil to be easier, and more layed back. What you get is what you put in tho Remember this is just my opinion

yea Gmaccin6is right. you need the blueish colored lights. they usually come in a blue package.... but a 5500k + would work fine...
You'll need to keep adding more bulbs as this little beauty starts really developing. And remember to keep your cfl's as close as possible w/o burning it.
I was in the same "broke" boat as you. but i found a great HPS light at home depot. I had to do simple + to - wiring, but overall, it cost me about 35 bucks... and its only a 70 watt. add that with a few cfls, and mine turned out great

Good shit. There's something 'bout that city that makes me wanna live there. Probably 'cause it's 130 am over here, and I won't sleep 'till about 5am or later.

Honestly I was having some probs at home. Probably more of a runaway to getaway kind of thing. I'm missing SD tho. I'm also getting quite comfy over here. Decisions decisions..... I'll probably move back eventually
