Size of LST/CFL Yield?

Hi all,
I have made the grow box i am going to be working with. It is one of those big orange traffic barrels you see on contruction sites on roads. It will be lit by CFL's walls are completly light and air tight. shiny side of poster board for walls, same for room and floor, roof and floor kinda rounded and blended in with the walls through use of white modeling clay, and coatingjust the clay with white latex gloss paint. Now my question is, if i have 4 1 gallon planters, and using the LST method, maybe lollipoping, and topping for extra yield. about how much do you think each plant would yield? also i'll have 4, 50 watt, and 2, 27 watt odor eliminating cfl's for veg, and 8, 50 watt's for flower. The watt amount is not in true watts, it's the cfl wattage. idk the exact ratio. I know this is enough light, but is it too much? Any help with my Yield size, And my lighting use would be very helpful. :leaf:


P.S. Try to get pics up of my box soon. Doesn't sound stealth, but for my room it is. :]
 
i was told the 27 watt cfls are like a 100 watt of any other lightbulb. So wouldn't that make my veg period about 1000watts give or take, and my flower bewteen 1100 and 1200watts? Which cfl's would you suggest?
