just me
But go for a few CFLs. Then once ready for flowering (about 2 months) spring for a small 100-250W HPS for low budget. 400W+ for full deal.
.
A couple of clamp lights and 'Y' adapters then some CFL's plugged into them should work well for veggin. Flowering is a whole other story from what I've read. Some have done quite well on CFLs. I am skeptical.


Your mileage may vary

It should. The hardware store is meant for the home guy. (unless yo are living in the sticks) Just look at eh box/specs or ask. It should say 120VAC. If the guy gives you a funny look just say it for above your garage. If you still look like a kid, say its for your boss's place.
