read your (wonderfully detailed) first post again for your starting technique - I will start in my usual light mix soil in smaller pots for the first 10 days or so.
I have ordered Gold Label 60/40 - that root shot you posted from last round stuck with me and I can’t argue with those results.
I’ll continue with my Advanced Nutrients line, except I suppose I should fork out for their specific “Coco” A&B base nutes.
golden info mate thank you
Bloombastic is an all in one Bloom booster, you start using it once you stop with the big bud. It has the PK in the boost so no need to worry about when is the perfect time for PK
it also works great after big bud as that is what I use too. Big bud definitely has my approval the whole AN line does if you don't look at the price but I know you can buy equivalents much cheaper, its just finding out which ones. I was using just my coco A + B with bloombastic alone for a couple of years before I came across the bcuzz bloom stim which then made me realise that atami have about 5 different companies that produce different nutrients but can all be used together. The stim reminded me of canna boost and I found an Atami chart that suggested adding it with the bloombastic. They are both really cheap and easy to get hold of.
HPS has the advantage in the department of yield thats for sure but in terms of quality I have been seeing some real top end stuff coming from LED's, tho knowing my mate he has spent atleast £1000 per light. The reason I stick with the HPS more than anything else apart from the fact I know how it performs is the heat, today if I was using 2 LED's I would then have to start buying heaters and speed controllers ect ect for yourself and others with a small space I couldn't agree more HPS is far too expensive and tbh a 600w would be too much light for your space.
I think I'll just do 12 as normal, the heavy leaning livers, crack pheno I have is a real beauty if I get 12 of them I would be over the moon. 10/10 for density, real sticky and smells sweet and almost fruity tho she is at the back so I could be smelling a mix of all sorts haha definitely over 2 on her already but with the density I can see 4 being possible. After this run I'm going to be getting into almost silly amounts of stock so if I do these and get 2-3 off each I will probably just experiment over summer, possibly buy some £60 blurples and see what I can do.
Yeah I need the grow space as the dry space so its important that they can all be harvested together, otherwise I would certainly do say 4 different strains each time like 3 of each. When I go through the catalogue I check the finish times against each other, this is one reason I have been staying away from the orange strains and a couple of others, they take far too long in my opinion. I think mephisto have the genetics for amazing flowers built into the auto's now, what I really want is for them or someone to start trying to breed more speed into existing strains. Imagine other mephisto strains finishing at the same time as the Sour Crack, imagine each strain having 2 versions, the quick and the normal. Oh believe me its not bad having a full harvest of sour livers, seeds produce many different pheno's too so I think from now I am going to jar each plant individually so that I can taste the difference between each. I have 20 odd zips of the Livers left just gets better tbh but you have to keep it moist in my experience, keeps the flavour really locked in.
I love some of the smells already, fresh rubber or trainer smells, some severe chem and some 100% dog, I am happy. I think a few may need more than 70 days tho so if that is the case I am just going to bite the bullet and sheet off half the room and harvest 3-4. The sour crack leaning sour livers pheno won't be happy if it goes past 70 days looking at it now, I just hope I can get it dark enough but if anyone has any useful tips on shading your bud while drying or info on how much light it actually takes before the thc starts degrading at a noticeable level I would appreciate it. In the meantime I will try to find some myself.
I'm glad it helped mate, I will just wait a couple of months before you start to tell me how amazing the 60/40 is
I will also get some more pics up tomorrow, definitely one of some roots for you to look at
SO EXCITED TO SEE THIS 
that’s a new one on me, looks like a strong PK booster? I guess my equivalent is Big Bud which I can’t say I’ve used enough to form an opinion much beyond that I think it smells good 
mate, your buds look awesome, nicely trained to grow up wards the buds?
