I use a t8 grow light just like the one you mentioned i use for clones and seedlings. it works very well i think i actually got mine from wal-mart in the light section and it is actually for growing plants. i believe you should be fine using it. i uave had little strech while using this light but i only use it for about 2 weeks till i can put them under the hid. hope this helps and good luck with your grow
