2 CFLs won't be near enough to finish your plants with any type of satisfaction.
you want a minimum of 5000 lumens per sq ft.
with that setup, you can get one, maybe two plants depending on what size you let them get.
if you are gonna use CFLs then i'd suggest building a shorter, wider cab. CFLs don't have great canopy penetration so it would be better to have more small plants than a few big ones.
you might want to invest in a cheap 400W or 600W HPS light. you're gonna keep buying CFLs and keep buying CFLs to get better and better results and then you'll have spent more than a HPS light that will run more efficiently and produce by far superior buds.
flat white paint will work the best unless you go mylar or panda plastic. i used some aluminized auto sunshades that i got from the $.99 store that work great.
put plastic on the floor as if it gets wet it can support mold and bacteria both of which can harm your ladies.
also, unelss you are running co2 you want to exhaust the oxygen filled, stale air and replace it with co2 rich, fresh air. you want the air to be exchanged at least every 5 minutes, preferrebly every 1 or 2.
keep on reading, it only get's more fun.
