If I were you I would get a 4 foot, 6 bulb (8 bulb if you can spare the loot) for that tent. Otherwise you'll have a half illuminated tent.

i dont have enough money for one of those right now do you know of any cheap ones?
 
I have the 8 buld-4' version of this from HTG Supply and am not regretting it a minute. Save your $$ for something good and worthwhile, it will be worth it in the long run. But you are on the right track with HTG SUpply and those bulbs will work fine in your tent.

I'd love to have some more people subscribed on my grow for some input. I'm doing a full grow (veg and flower) with T5 in soil(less-ish...I think?)

See link in sig.

What about flowering??
You can flower with these too but for best results, change the bulbs out when you switch to flower for ones with a color temp of 3000K or lower. The HO t5 bulbs are around $10 each.
