hey jmo0909,
4 26w 6500k CFL's will do just fine for veg. just make sure to keep the plants 2-4 inches away from them. and once you start budding, make sure to get the right spectrum, and you will also need a little more juice. I added two 42w cfl's to the side as well dduring flowering, and my ladies are getting some pretty nice buds.

so how much do you think 6 42W CFL's on one plant will yeild?
Thats a combination of the size of the plant, plus growing techs. are you going to top? Are you going to FIM? LST? 6 42W is fine for one plant, but hell I saw a 150w HPS going for $20 on some website.

top is when you cut the top of your plant to create multiple colas. I am not familiar with the fim technique and lst( Low Stress Training) is a technique where you bend you plant to create more bud sites, they are tutorials in the grow faq
