tips for a successful batch
 

Hi I would like to grow some hydro. I am planning to use the 11 plant garden. Anyone with tips for a successful batch would greatly be appreciated. I plan to germinate them by leaving them in a wet towel for a day or two and then putting them in.

What kind of nutrients should I use to get a potent crop?

I am growing them indoors so can you tell me what type of lighting I should use as well? I know the lights can get pricey, what is the price range usually at, and how much does it cost to operate them, because I heard that in the early stages the lights should be on 24hrs a day.

How long does it take before, I can enjoy the fruits of my labor?

Thank you in advance for any help that can be offered. I would like to also say this is a wonderful site. Hydroponics is very cool!

Any concentrated hydroponic nutrient solution will work.

About 60 dollars per 1000 W room per month. That includes vents, fans, pump and light.

About 6 months from germinating the seeds, sexing the plants (male & female), Cloning mother plants, 6 weeks veg. stage, and 8 weeks bud stage. Enjoy.
