What sort of wattage per square foot should you look to acheive with a cfl sog closet setup?

i have a 2' x 2' mother "room" and a 2' x 5' flowering space.
i currently have 6x 20w 6500k lights in the mother space.
is this enough for the mothers? the entire flowering space will be full once the mums are old enough to clone and want to know how many lights ill be needing. I figured somewhere around 24 x 23w 3000k bulbs? remember this is sog, so i dont need much side lighting...
(these are the highest wattage cfls i could find in my area...)

maybe this should be in a new thread?
and keep in mind a plant doubles in size when you flower, so you might want to do that soon to keep it short
