You're not crazy gastanker, I was going to ask the same question. By my calculations, even with 4 42w bulbs there would only be about 13,000 lumens ... Again. not hating, just curious  .
I hope you don't mind me jumping in, but reflective materials don't increase lumenage, they simply make more of your lumens available to the plants by offering a reverbiration of light.
Sounds like you're off to a start homegrwn, I'm interested in the Strawberry varieties for my breeding so I'll be keeping an eye on this. Let me know if you need anything, keep the updates coming
