yup its enough, for two plants. just get them close and monitor the heat.
20/4 should work great.
adding up lumen like that isn't really anything.
how about you check out the DIY closet and box grow journals.

Does it look right to you? Are they burning or getting crispy? Goldilocks zone, just over the distance where they would burn.
