First grow need lighting advice

[GreenDragon_Fruits]

Good evening everybody I have a 32x32x64 yield labs grow tent and I wanted to grow two plants and I wanted to put six different light sources with a splitter on the end of them making 12 lights in total. What do you guys think of this? Is that overkill for two plants? I am hoping that I am not overdoing it with 12 lights. Thank you for any and all advice in advance and happy growing.

Depends what the lights are. If it's 12 x 50w or similar then no, it's not overkill. If it was like 12 x 600w then yeah!

I was planning on using cfl's I'm not sure on the wattage though. I had my eye on the daylight and soft white bulbs since I kept seeing them being recommended so often. How many lights do you think would easily support two plants?

to make it simple get yourself 4 clamp lights (make sure to get the ones with sockets rated for 660w) with jumbo dome and 28 y splitters (7 per fixture), connect the splitters so you can attach 8 bulbs equally spaced (usually it has 4 pointing down and 4 out to the sides on a slight downward angle), those should fit within the jumbo dome. for the light spectrum i would use 4 6500k 3 5000K and 1 2600k per fixture for veg then when you turn over to flower switch to 5 2600k, 2 4100k, and 1 5000k. all cfls should be the 23 watters. it will come out to about 180 watts per fixture

Yes I do sorry for the late reply I have been really busy since I started. The first pic is an overview of my babies. Second is my chains, which are 33 inches I need longer ones but that will have to wait for a bit. All the names on the for the plant's are not real strain names but are made up because they were all unknown bag seeds so I decided to distinguish between the three with my own names.
