Indoor advice on small veg area.

[fweedom]

Wassup guys I always have always put my sprouted plants straight under my hps but i want to build a veg station.

I want to have a small veg area so when I have a couple autos 3 weeks from harvest, ill have some autos that have been vegging for 3 weeks ready to replace them

So to veg 2 or 3 plants for only 3 weeks what kind of lights do u guys recommend and how much of it?

Should I go for some cfls, t5's, an mh?

I already have a tent with a 400w hps but if like I said I wanna have some ready to replace the harvested ones.

I don't really have a budget but I don't wanna spend to much cash being that I'm going to only have 2-3 plants under whatever I get for 3 weeks at a time before I put em in my tent.

Any suggestions?

T-5's will do really well for just vegging out and would be my first choice on the list. I have a small seedling box I use sometimes I have a 4 bulb t5 in there.

Mine is a custom setup I did with a icecap 660 ballast i had from my aquarium stuff overdriving 4 2 ft 54w T5 HO bulbs. You cannot just buy a fixture like that as most 2 foot T5's for plants are like 24w I think.
