Looks good Bud. In my set up I am only running the t5 & t8 lights with no added cfls. The added side light will help with growth just watch your temps and she will grow.

Good luck and have fun

this looks like a good use of T-5 nice compactness. Like the use of mspaint props for that its my favorite. You probably wont need those cfl's untill flower so its not a big deal plants really dont need much light to veg.

to save energy you probably could just use one cfl untill it fills out to the edge of the bucket. If it is indica and grows short that is. then put the t-5 on it. its up to you but it probably can't really use that much light untill the fan leaves start coming out and are nice and dark green. Thats just what I did and it didn't seem to grow faster the more light I put on it so I used 1 untill that wouldn't cover well anymore.
