Best Light for a mother plant ? cheapest to run All year ... LED? ,T5s ?

I’m just curious on the most efficient light to keep a mother or possibly 2 mothers going .. to keep em nice green and vegged .. monthly costs ? I’ll most likely be using my old 3x3 .. also . Is it better to keep mothers on 18/6? or run em 24 ? I’m new to this page . But I know there’s lots of knowledge on here . so I figured I’d ask .
