Whole thing will cost a little over $300 got to ask yourself if it's worth it. You could just throw in staggered cheap HPS lights if you can handle the heat.

I wouldn't try the CFL it's less efficient than LED plus you have to have it so close it might get in the way of your other lighting. And it won't be any cheaper.

CFLs are great for seeds and veg. But you need more more power at flower. I wouldn't get t8 I would spend the extra money and get the T5 s

It doesn't matter how you do it. As long as you're hitting the right spectrum and at the preferred watts per square footage and can maintain the correct temperature you'll be golden.

If you're doing is scrog having a reflective floor would be pointless.
