cfl's are becoming more common these days, although not as powerful as HID. you can find those cheap sometimes. you can also get a 150watt hps light for 20$ or something like that, there is a thread around here on it.

^ no, not really..
you have to focus on the spectrum also..

if you don't get an HPS, MH, HID ect.
your best bet would be CFLs
vegging with 6500k bulbs (daylights)
flowering with 2700k bulbs (soft/warm whites)

good luck man :D
