Here is a start for grow lights.

I use cfl spirals at 300 watt output x 3 in a ceiling fan for some ferns and a few bananas plants which is just enough to get by.

You may also use 6500 k tubes that you may buy at big box stores ; for your set up you might need a four bulb fixture for good light and coverage for 100.00+~

YouTube is an awesome source for do it yourself lights.....keyword cfl grow lights
