2 150w cfls and the 2 4ft tubes wont be too much. More the better... If all goes well and u veg long enough u could get Between 3 and 4 oz probably

It definately wont be to much lighting, i always use 1 200watt cfl atop each plant and a floro tube or 2 on each side. As for yield, there are just to many variable to really say. What strain, how long you veg, ect. depending on your patiance and if the whole closet is a dedicated grow room ild veg em to like 40-45 inches then start 12/12 just to get em a lil bigger. had a friend who vegged 2 plants to 48 inches and had main colas at damn near a half a pop.

The rule of thumb is you can never have too much light, after all you are competing with the sun. Once I did come across a place and he had it so bright you needed dark sunglasses just to go in, if anyone was close to too much light it was him.

I wouldn't worry about what you have. If you had (4) 1000 watters over one plant we might talk, but you could probably run all the flourescent you can fit in your closet and still have nothing to worry about.
