That's a very limited height, you will need to stick to fluoros throughout. Get those lights closer, literally like an inch or two from the plants (but don't let any part of the plant touch the light). Put them in containers that are as low and wide as the space can accommodate to give the plants as much root volume as possible while taking up as little height as possible. You will need to LST or scrog to keep the plants low.

T5s are a higher output in lumens than T8,if your not sure about the #s remember tubes are 8/8=1inch so T5=5/8/T8=1 and T12=1.5inches
