OK - ever the new project.

I'd like to give my better natured half an indoor growing system this year (maybe a hydroponic system?). I've searched a bit for kits, prices range from high to low. Does anyone have a recommendation for a basis system to grow a few plants this winter and maybe expand into it a bit further if everything goes well.

Goals:
Tomatoes, other veggies
Herbs
Maybe starting some outdoor seeds before spring

Resources:
HUGE basement that stays pretty warm
Some money (not looking to invest a thousand dollars though)

Constraints:
Knowledge
Don't want a 500 dollar a month electric bill

Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated - even if it's - GIVE UP THE IDEA OF HYDROPONICS! We might find that grow lights on a table is the best route for winter veggies instead of an elaborate hydroponic system. I just don't know. Is there a better forum for these questions?

Thanks in advance,
Sandra
