Yes, typically hung from ceiling. Type of light depends on your budget / yield desire. If you want to get a lot of bud from a lot of plants you'll want a 400+ watt MH / HPS ballast / bulb. If you just want a few plants you can probably get away with HO T5s or CFLs.

CFLs are the curly energy saver bulbs. u can get them any where. look on the package for certain thing: highest wattage you can find, 2700K and 6500K are what u use, use as many as you can fit in your grow area. CFL growing has its own thread on here llok it up and read it.
