    Welcome to the forum! I know when I first started growing I was allowed to have a certain number of plants and I thought that's what I needed to grow. I'm sure I received a lot of advice to grow less plants and I know I ignored that advice, the result was a year of crap yields and nothing really working even though I spending time and money.

    I would advise picking any four plants you want to grow and one medium try to stick with plants that have the same growth characteristics so indica's or sativas or similar hybrids but don't grow a mix. Then you learn everything you can about growing in that one medium and as you get the skills venture out.

    I found that auto flowers require less nitrogen than photo period strains and it's a good idea to keep them a little bit hungry and even just a slight bit pale. So for a new grower you wouldn't need a whole line of nutrients or even to try and attempt to follow the chart as far as max dosages.

    Thanks for the advice I have Five of the same strand seeds feminized but I had one freeway so I just wanted to venture out and try something different on my first attempt just to see maybe I had better experience in that field rather than one field maybe just to explore my options I have garden before not marijuana but I’m not exactly new to growing plants just maybe indoors

    With those lights I would do 6 plants in 10-15L pots,stick to soil or coco,veg for 2-3 weeks and flip them,use an EC pen and look at grow diaries for feeds,do NOT go by nutrient charts,and make sure you know if your soil contains nutrients already as you don't wanna feed nutes to soil that already has nutes.
    Use 1 of your blurpees for the first week,then switch to the CMH for the rest of veg,for flower CMH and quantum,move plants and turn them every day or 2 so they get a mix of the light.
