If this is your first grow I would highly suggest start with soil.

Too many first time growers try to go the hydro method and wind up messing everything up.

And definitely stay away from leds from what i have read and heard they do not perform good at all.

I also did not see any pics of your grow room.

post a pic and will try to give you some pointers

for leds use Procyon, I saw a start to finish grow journal using 3 of their 100 watt setups and the guy did not get the quantity of hps but he got a lot more tricromes and said the smoke was amazing.

I'm sure alot of people got started growing after watching those Mr Green videos, including myself. There is some good info there for the first time growers but, you will find once you get going that theres some pretty important info missing, Such as how long to drip each time, how much water each time, and several other steps in the grow that I can't remember, since I havent watched it in a long time. Just a suggestion, If your going with the rockwool and clay pellets, dont use the dripper setup. You will find that since the rockwool retains alot of h2o and the pebbles retain very little, eventuely your going to over saturate the cubes wile trying to get h20 to the roots in the pebbels. Alot of guys will say that you can't over water rockwool, but believe me you can. Stick with the Ebb n flow on both sides. Just keep the water level about 1/2 inch below the cube.

LED huh? Have you done your homework or are the leds you're going to get just a good deal online? It's tough to compare LED lights. Procyon looks promising, look also at TI in my sig. If you're short on cash, stick with CFL/HPS until you can spring for a light you won't be sorry you bought.

Whatever happens, it better be fun, or else. :)
