Some questions for purely educational purposes:

  1. What are some good sites to buy seeds from? Recommended strains?
  2. what are some good guides on the topic? Anything for absolute beginners?
  3. Whats the cost of equipment look like? What is the absolute bare minimum I would need to get started for indoors growing?

Living soil in a pot is the easiest way, just lmfao. I literally spent more time learning about making living soil and how to feed it than it took me to grow my first plants on Coco coir. And beyond the learning requirements, a plant will grow perfectly fine in a small bag of coir, while living soil require cubic metres of dirt in your closet to be sustainable.
