Hydroponics...

...Yup, I know what you're probably thinking...and well, it's probably half right.
I'm considering putting together a small hydroponic growth area. PRIMARILY for growing things indoors that birds tend to attack, eg, tomatoes, passionfruits, and other small, sweet above-ground fruits/vegetables, and maybe grow some really nice, fat chillis.
And yes, of course weed is going to make an appearance at some point...but again, more of a space filler and personal supply thing there.
So, questions.
Has anyone here any experience with making a growth and/or drainage system of this type themselves?
Reccomendations on bulb wattage, ventilation, nutrients, soil/rocks...etc...?
Is the "foil lining" thing accurate?
What other fruit/veg could you see doing well?

Thanks. -B.
