using two 14 watt 650 each lumens,

Good enough for what? Good enough to germinate a plant and maybe grow it to 6 inches high, but you need a LOT MORE light than that to grow a big plant worth harvesting. 2x14watts no where near enough light to get more than a few grams dried off a plant. The bare minimum I would use to grow One single plant is 8 or 9 of those 14 watt bulbs. Better yet invest in a 250 watt High Pressure Sodium (HPS) bulb with remote ballast and grow 2 plants.

i'm not looking to yield in a big amount.

wanting to keep the plant short, and maybe force it to flower after about a foot of height.
 
The plant will double in height in flower. so 1ft = 2ft+ and 2x14w lights aren't going to be enough for a 1ft plant even in veg.

oh i'll be adding more once they start to grow (so far only one popped out the soil, other 2 just added in today), just wanting to know if it's good for now.

it's about 5 inches right now
 
Well, if it just sprouted it shouldn't be 5in tall, it must be stretching. The CFLs should be about 2-3in away from the top of the plant.
