i wouldnt trust flea-bay for grow stuff.

Hydro: i have no experience with, but if you re a new grower maybe its better to pass the "growing 101" course using soil and then u can upgrade to hydro. Buying a few pots and some soil wont cost you much either, in case you re wondering how much its gonna cost you to invest in a soil set up and then upgrade to hydro.

As for the set up, i think a digital ballast with a 400HPS should be just fine, if u r gonna grow for personal use. Get a good reflector too.

You will also need a carbon filter and an etxraction fan (5"). Also a thermometer and hygrometer.

If you re not handy with 2 x 4's, i would suggest buying a grow tent (budbox, etc). Get a large one 1m x 1m x 2m. It will give you headroom in case u wanna grow sativas at one point. It has all the holes (for cables, filters, watering systems, etc) built in.

Buy once and buy quality products.

Getting the cheap stuff ,will cost you more on the long run.


Dont forget a good-sized fire extinguisher.
