I really don't want to get waste all of the 4'fluorescents i purchased. I can't take themback. no boxes, I would like to add some cfl's to the flowering room.
What should I add, and how many, and should they be, cool white, warm white or mixed. thanks for you advice!

I wouldn't call you buying the tubs and fixtures a waste...
1st what kind of of tubes did you get?... the daylight tubes are great for veging, and warm light or "kitchen and bath" are good for budding.
Keep your fixtures right over your plants as close as you can get them and add cfl's in and around your plants to supplement them with more light... the cfl's are just like the tubes.... daylight for veg and softwhite for budding.
One last thing, in your little grow cab, instead of just a reflector behind your lights... also you use mylar to line the inside of the cab... when using cfls, proper reflection is very important.
Check out my little grow for some ideas... Micro ebb/flow (NOW DWC), all CFL ScrOG, perpetual Stealth locker
