I will be itemizing everything I spent so the incoming newbies can get a good idea of what it really costs to run a small op.

So far:
$5 timer - Home Depot
$4 18g reservoir - Home Depot
$12 4pk 23W daylight CFL ( for vegging moms) - Lowes
$6 Hygrometer for temp and humidity with high/low memory - Walmart
$8 Fan 9" - Lowes
$215 400hps with cooltube - HTG Supply
$99 36"x20"x62" grow tent - Ebay

Still to get:

Pots (5-6")
Aquarium water pump
Hoses
Aquarium air pump
Bubble stone
Tub for ebb/flow
Ebb/Flow fittings
Nutrients
H2O2 - 35%
Testing equipment
1.5" Rockwool cubes
Grow medium (Clay Pebbles or Higromite, I have not decided)
Exhast Fan
Carbon filter if needed - I am growing a berry so I may be able to control the odor with ONA for less $
Tubs to make MOM chamber for vegging
Seedling Heat Mat
Cloning Gel
Soil (for moms)


It is off to the garden nursery tomorrow. They have a nice little hydro section in the back with good prices.
