First off, how do you arrive at the 25 figure?
Is that due to space, or do you have 25 seeds?
Do you know how much room you are working with?
How long are you going to veg if at all?
What kind of time frame?
What size pots?
Follow Uncle Ben, you can grow 25 plants on a couple shelves, and end up with a few pounds if you do it right.
You have a join date of 2009, but 130+ posts, have you done any research at all or are you gonna run out and scoop a shovel full of dirt from your driveway?
You gotta give some parameters for this hypothetical grow man.

No man, amount of plants has nothing to do with your yield. What matters is your canopy area and total watts of light.
For a 400W HPS, you should be able to pull in 1g/W/2month as a benchmark point, so slightly more or less depending on skill and genetics.
You could grow lots of tiny plants or 1 giant plant and still fill the same canopy up.
Having smaller plants will allow you to put in less veg time to fill up the same canopy area.

I really don't think you get it...
I'd grow 25 of these. Do it exactly like this. 25 of them, each bigger and more potent than the last:
Any more questions you don't want overcomplicated answers to?
Or you could learn canopy planning and limit yourself based on watts and area, not number of plants...

Would a 200 watt CFL be big enough?

You don't want these near the bottom.... It can cause "light bleaching" and "nute burn" if the light gets too close.
