550W HPS/MH Grow room - Help/advise needed! 3 plants

So, this is my 10000th attempt at making a decent grow cabinet, I have managed to pick up a 400W Metal Halide ballast for £20 or around $30-$35. I also have a 150W HPS and ballast which I picked up for £5 or -$10.
I am going to remove the ballast from the flood light and make the flood light hang while the ballast is elsewhere, this is because the ballast weighs so much I can't hang it properly.
I am growing in my garage which can get pretty cold, so I bought myself a 150W Ceramic bulb incase the lights don't spread enough heat, and when I turn to 12/12 the heater can give off heat without light so great!
I have 3 seeds
Kandy Kush by Reserva Privada
Tangerine Dream by Barney's Farm
and a freebie, Power Kush by DinaFem

I am growing in Canna Coco Natural - Quick question Would I need to start with nutes since it doesn't have any nutes in to begin with?
I will use pH'd Fish tank water, it has loads of natural Nitrogen which can't damage the plant if over fed
I will also get some XtremeGardening Azosperillum which fixes bacteria to the roots, and feeds the plant Nitrogen through the roots
I have Biobizz Grow and Bloom
Anyone have any idea's on my grow room and how to make it better? that HPS is just hanging there for the moment , I will move it later..
I am yet to line the inside with refelctive material so don't go crazy at me for that :P
Also! YES I will flower with the MH. Please don't tell me about the spectrums, I have seen amazingly successful grows from start to finish with a MH. I will get a bigger HPS when I can afford one. But at the moment, this MH will do perfectly.
So tell me what you think!
