Autoflower grow questions ???.......

Hi I am starting up my second and hopefully first successful grow and had a couple questions that some of the more experienced growers can help me out a bit. I have ordered 5 feminized Autoflower Hindu Kush and 5 Feminized Autoflower White Russian seeds from Lowlife. I am growing stealthily in a tucked away cabinet which is 24" tall, 21" wide and 13.5" deep

With my fan going and two 42 watt CFL's the temp hovers around 80 degrees fahrenheit. My main question is what do you guys think my best choice would be for lighting? I have ordered the plants and will begin germinating and vegging the plants with simple cfl's but what would you think of a 150-175 watt HPS light in there? How bad would heat be? Also to finish a small autoflower strain like White Russian or Hindu Kush how big do you think the pots would have to be?

Was also thinking of possibly two 125 watt cfl's in there for flowering? I am also in the process of painting the cab flat white

Was looking at self ballasted 150 watt hps lights and wanted to know what everyone thought of it being in my grow with my kinda temps etc...

I wouldn't put a 150 HPS in that small an area, they get kinda hot. With that set up rock out some high powered CFLs
