Read up on your botany. It will come in handy here.

You're supposed to use a highly reflective wall covering to make your lighting more efficient. Unwrinkled mylar (either from a grow shop or in desperation emergency blankets from the camping section of wal mart) is the best. Next best is flat white paint. Tinfoil is way down there.

To start off, plain old flourescent shop lights are perfectly serviceable. One aquarium tube and one cool white tube in the fixture. They should be almost touching the tops of the plants. You will need to be able to lift the lights as they grow. As they get taller, if you still are using flouros you have to add more, and side lighting. When you are ready to flower them, expect to fork over some cash for a REAL ag light, a nice HPS. A 400w will do a little more than a square meter of floor space. You can push it; I've got 2x400w illuminating 24 flowering plants. So the trick is to keep your plants kind of short. You'll see if you look at peoples grows. A 400 throws some heat and should be around a foot above the tops, with a fan blowing on the light.
