It's all about the lumens baby!
Someone posted a while back (either here or on TheEasyGarden) about the amount of lumens required by plants to get them to grow properly indoors. Most grow lights DO NOT have enough. I have tried them in the past and had really crappy results. Good news is you do not need expensive grow lights, you just need the highest wattage CFL's you can find. 175w equivalent are great, but 2 100w equivalent bulbs will work too. I have about 5 lights with CFL bulbs and an old sign with florescent tubes all on an old dresser. The lights are all connected to one timer. So far so good
