Last minute questions for first grow

For the last month I have been reading multiple websites and forums on how to grow marijuana successfully. I feel like I have a good understanding on how to do it, I just have a few questions I need answered. For starters I plan on growing in the closet of my spare bedroom. It's a walk-in closet so I have plenty of space. I am going to be growing 2 feminized LSD plants using DWC. My first question is, can I keep the closet door closed if I put a fan in there to circulate the air? The door has slats in it so air can come in and out but they are overlapping each other so not much air and flow in and out. My second, and final question, is about lighting. I want to use CFLs sense it's only 2 plants. I plan on purchasing 6 23w 6500k bulbs and 4 23w 2700k bulbs. Will this be enough for the 2 plants even in the flowering stage? Or should I get higher wattage bulbs and not as many? Thank you so much for any advice you can give me. I am super excited to start and I Hope everything goes well for my first grow

I was looking into doing that actually.... for thatany bulbs I might as well just buy one T5 and be done with it

Yup. More light coverage and more output.
Depending on your closet size I recommend an 8 bulb. Switch the 6500ks out with 2700-3000ks or run a mixed spectrum. Keep the T5 as close as you can to the plants without burning. 2-4". Check ebay. They have good deals.

Measure your closet and figure out if you want a 4ft or 2ft and 4 or 8 bulb if it will fit.

And those slits plus a fan should provide plenty of air exchange. I would crack it just a bit though for that extra protection.
