hey everyone i need help picking some light for my veg. stage. iwant to grow about 3-5 plants. iwas thinking of going with a mh light but there pretty pricey.i didnt really want to spend more than $100 ...so i was thining of going with florecent lights.

i saw this one
New Wave T5 System - 2', 2 Bulb | BGH (http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/customkititems.asp?kc=HLIFT5NW22&eq=)

but it only has two long bulbs is that enough for 3-5 plants on veg.stage?

and i also found this for like $30 more it has 4 bulbs
New Wave T5 System - 2', 4 Bulb | BGH (http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/customkititems.asp?kc=HLIFT5NW24&eq=)

.....if you guys think these suck their are more on here ..please let me know which one would be best..BetterGrow Hydroponics | Hydroponic Supplies, Grow Lights, Indoor Gardening (http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/items.asp?Cc=IF&iTpStatus=0&Tp=&Bc=)

I would go with the 4 bulb system if you can. Also you can probably find a better deal on ebay like this one.
