Enough Light for plants? And supplies.

So, I recently buildt myself a Nice grow cabinet equipped with a humidifier, thermometer, fan. The cabinet is equipped with 8 40 watt 6500k cfl and 8 40 watt 2700k. I purchased fox farm ocean potting soil, superthrive, and some nutes. forget what they're called.. so does everything sound good? How many plants do you think I could support? And I've heard aluminum foil can be used to reflect light, would that be fine? I read about mylar and white paint but foil is all I have.. would foil be better than nothing? Thanks.

White paint is better than foil, but you can get a BIG mylar blanket at Wally World in the camping dept. for 2 bucks.
How can we answer how many plants will fit if you don't tell how big the box is, or even give a pic so we can see bulb placement.

My camera on my phone is broken atm. I can fit 6 2.5 gal pots in there and have enough room for a humidifier and a fan. My light set up is this, a bulb in each top corner. Two in the middle above. 3 lights in the mid sections on three walls, two random tube lights I found on each door, 3 more bulbs on each wall lower at the floor. I have 5 more remaining cfls I think ima place another two on the top, and the reaming three in the lower corners. Pretty much light in every direct. that setup sound good?

Edit: I meant how many plants can that amount of light grow? 640 watt cfl in total

Go with three plants four at the max!

agreed
better to go with fewer plants, and have them trained.

Thanks. I learned the two bulbs on my door are 50 watt hps. So does the light placement sound fine?
