I'm getting excited with ya, looks like you're well off to a good start, however there's a few things you ought to think about,
If you are only going to use part of your closet lst may not be such a good idea as they my bush out, if I where you I would try topping or fimming, I tried both and both are growing 4 colas and are growing up not out, therefore leaves me with more horizontal space.
The soil you are using is good for seedlings but I wouldn't recommend using it when transplanting to larger pots, I use black gold and natures, both organic and are working fine.. nature is the cheaper of the two and is fine, however if you can afford it and can find black gold I recommend it, try to find something with worm castings, seems to work good.
I don't know about the ferts you have there but if it were me I'd rather use MG but I'm sure you can find something better, I heard good things about foxfarm products and am now using them, thanks to the following link, it was turned on to me and I found a place near me that sold it, maybe you can do the same.

The lights you have will definitely work for veg but as they grow you may need to ad a few as you already know, although because I'm a noob! I vegged and now flowering using all softwhite and things appear to be doing awesome!
If you use plywood for your lighting fixture, be sure to build a support forming around it or it will bend/fold/warp in time.
Concerning lighting schedule I would recommend doing one or the other, 24/7 - 18/6 I used 24/7, things worked out good.
Here are a few things that helped me in my journey, hope they will help you in yours as well.
