Default First CFL Grow, Check It Out

So this is my first CFL grow. I picked up a total of 4 clones from the club today, 2 are Soul Diesel and the other 2 are Grape Ape. I have no idea how old the clones are but I put them under 4 23W soft whites and some random 65W plant light I found in the closet. I plan on keeping these lights on them for about a week then switching over to 12/12. Let me know what you guys think and what improvements can be done to this grow.

the only thing i would say is the bulbs you have got are the wrong color, you need cool whites and a few more lights couldnt hurt you could even leave 1 or 2 of the soft whites in there aswell to mix the spectrum a bit my plants seem to love it
