Lighting: 4x42w CFLs, 1x105w CFL
42w: https://www.1000bulbs.com/product/6822/FC42-S27277.html
105w: https://www.1000bulbs.com/product/8255/FC105-S27OD.html

Reflector: http://goo.gl/Dmx7sV Questions:
1.) Is this enough lighting for a single or double auto grow?
2.) Do I really need 5000K+ for vegging
3.) Do I need to worry about heat in this grow room, without circulation?
4.) Minimal yield guesstimate? Lighting: 4x42w CFLs, 1x105w CFL

My first grow ever. I grew an auto within 173w of cfl lighting. Yielded 34g dry. (My avatar pic)
You don't "need" 5000k but it helps/makes a difference.

Not too much heat but you still need an exhaust fan. Fresh air is key. You ALWAYS need circulation.
And noome can tell ypou what your yield is. Plant a rose bush and tell me how many roses I'll get?
Yield is dependent on many factors. Do some research.
Any information you need is on this site. I read for a long time before attempting my grow. Be patient and you will learn.
P.s keep those CFLs 5-6 inches above the canopy. (Some will disagree) you will have to move it every day.
And research LST

This looks alot like my set up... I am running 282 watts 2 105 watt and 3 24 watt and my plant is coming on nicely, it's bag seed and I just switched flower about 4 weeks ago. I have two small electronic cooling fans in my box and when the lights are on it stays a steady 78 degrees. Here's some picturesDSC_0408.JPG DSC_0407.JPG
