Hi m0dr0b3s,

 

Your question is one with many answers.

There are several "types" of basic setup, some more complex than others.

 

Lighting is easy to answer, for a cupboard grow, go with a 400w HPS light. The 400 watters are easier to keep cool than any of the large lights. If you can, get a "Son-T-Argo" bulb and a "Super"-ballast, that will provide you with a better light spectrum for your plants.

 

Now, onto the main question: What system are you going to grow with?

 

The easiest system for newbie growers is to use something simple like CoCo or Soil, if you really want you can use a reticulated setup with a "neutral" medium such as Clayballs or Perlite.

 

Have a read of the following threads and come back once you've made your decisions and have some-more detailed questions for us to answer:

 

- Pipeman's first grow.

 

- Instink's first grow.

 

- Allhail's questions about his setup.

 

- Luke's thread on a Retic Hydro setup.

 

Hope this helps!
