Autoflowers Veg?? (MH) VS (T5)

Basically i am going to do a small cupboard grow this is my first time doing autoflowers i have plenty experiance growing normal strains 8 - 12 weeks flowering with good results. i would normally use a 600 or 400 MH for veggie but was thinking of using 2x T5 units instead .just the ones tht cost around £50. And was just wondering what use guys thought would be better for veggie period as i know this is the most important stage of the autoflowers ?? (MH) VS 2x(T5)

i would personally say the (MH) would be better. But i was just thinking will it make that much of a diffrence to the acctuall yeild if i use t5s for veggie????I will obviously be using a HPS for flowering i am really trying to get as much as possible from this grow and dnt mind spending the extra cash on lecky if the (MH) Is going to give me a better veggie period that will = bigger yeild... i would go with that??? . what would you do?????

dose any one use cfls for veggie and get good result???

If it is a small cupboard grow, then the answer is clear; Go with the T5's.
Keep the bulbs about an inch or so from the tops of plants, and they will remain dense like you want them.
Then whip out the big boy lights after about two weeks from seed.
Keep the lighting schedule at 21/3 at all times.
