What's the "k" on your shop lights bulbs you have right now? If it's 6,000 to 6,500 keep that and just get your self 2 to 3- (2,700k or lower).
If you shop bulbs age good to go. Buy 2 clamp holders and buy 1 "y" splitter (I think that's what there called) cost you like $3. This will let you use 2 bulbs per clamp light.
That should save you a few bucks. You hang the bulbs as close as you can get them before it over heats the plant or burns them once there as close as you think you can get them. Hold your hand under the light for a min or 2. If the light doesn't get hot on your hand your good.

You'll be fine with lighting if you get that for now to veg. I wouldnt worry about to much about making them purple. A healthy plant will turn all the right colors that it wants to once you start trying to change colors you'll run into problems. If your looking for purple look into some purple plants that carry the gene. If your tips are getting brown on the end your over nuting. That's nut burn on the ends.
