It is absolutely doable to flower with T5, but you need to keep the 5000lumens per sqft rule. According to that, if you only have a 5'sq space then you are getting 6400 lumens per sqft which is enough. You will have to keep them very close to the plants the whole time as the T5 doesn't penetrate as well. But it should work just fine. You may not get as big and tight of buds as with an HID but they should still be good if that is all you have

Any body know if I will put cfl light in blue coler (for flowering is the right colour??) It would help???
