Those lights wont work for flower they aren't powerful enough and are the wrong spectrum you should look into hps otherwise you Will get a low yield and low quality bud if you use those lights.

You want about 100-125 cfl watts for each plant 4ft tall in general. The temp of the light for flowering needs to be no higher than 3000k and whats better is the 2700k cfl lights. Any lights of 3500k - 4500k are usless in the grow room and should only be used for reading books :+) 5-6000k are great for vegging. Less than 100watts cfl per plant and you will get aiery big buds but they will be also weaker in the resin with under lighting..

If your ina state that it is ilegal to grow? you prob get busted for the weight of plant, stems, etc, you should be getting all the bud you can for the mass of plants.. Good Luck
