Closet grow, pretty small space in terms of width. Very tall though, height wont be a problem.
Going to germinate 1 bubbleicious fem/auto from nirvana, I'm growing in miraclegrow moisture control gardening soil in a 5 gallon bucket. I have mylar on every wall
in my small closet. A large reading lamp that I took the glass off, attached 2 y-splitters, and a makeshift reflector (cardboard and mylar) with 3 40w t10 bulbs underneath it. For side lighting I have a lamp with a 30w cfl and a makeshift verticle reflector (cardboard and mylar also). I have an osculating fan, and i move the stand the bucket's on since i cant move the light up and down. I'm just wondering if it'll be enough for the entire life of the plant. I'm not entirely sure how big the autos will get and i'm worried i wont have enough light. I'm not saying I need enough light to get like super yield, just worried i wont have enough to even keep it alive.
Thanks for answering, here's some pics

^ This is the reading lamp with 3 40w t10's, I did the best i could to make an adequate reflector with the money i have left after seeds ($0)

^ The reading lamp facing down, didn't bother covering otherside with mylar.

^ Here's the entire thing (on the right - readinglamp/reflector over 5gal bucket) (on the left, lamp with verticle reflector and 30w bulb)

^ I didn't have a good picture of the lamp so i tried to show you on paint... I'm not an artist.
Anyway, any replies will be appriciated. Thanks
