I just spent most of the day cleaning my house and reading about how to grow marijuana. (for information purposes only of coarse). That's some complicated shit. Hydroponic growing and ph levels and humidity levels. You need a fucking text book. And everything seems to be written in another language. I had to go to 3 different sites just to understand how to germinate them properly. While I'm at Grossmont I might take a botany coarse. Plants are an interesting thing.
found these purple carrots in a google search. Apparently they're real carrots that are indeed, purple.

Or, if you plan on growing with soil, put them in small pot, dixie cups or small peat pots will do. Get the soil nice and wet and put the pot in a plastic ziploc bag. Then put the siploc bag in a window or somewhere that gets lots of sun. This is creating a mini greenhouse. Oh,don't forget to poke a couple holes in the bag so they can get som air. Like 10 or so pinholes. Don't leave the seedlings in the plastic bag too long, they may get too hot.
Hydroponics is quite complicated. Although you can make some supernatural crops because evertyhting is so controlled and artificial. I still think organic soil is the best way to grow everything. Or soil with hydroponic nutrients. it is way cheaper than putting together a hydroponic set up. Not to mention the maintenance of the system. Seriously, your looking at about $1000, start up cost. the 400 watt sodium lamp is $400 alone, then you need smaller lights for the side.
I had an ex into the hydro thing big time. I never thought it was worth all the trouble he went through. Although...
