What to grow & what to feed?

I'm running dtw with used Tupur in 3 gal smart pots. I'm looking for suggestions on what to run & what to feed. I'm up for mixing strains and I'm open to mixing nute lines if you know it'll run together with no side effects.

My seeds are from Greenpoint:
Cowboy Kush
The Deputy
Hickok Haze
Butch Cassidy

My nutes:
Canna a&b (plenty)
Maxibloom & grow (plenty)
Megacrop (sample & would have to buy more to finish the run)

I like to smoke after work & to help fall asleep. I also like to smoke & work on the yard or something outside. Rather not have a 10 strain, been running Super Lemon Haze so shorter flowering would be nice! Thanks for any thought!

FWIW, a lot of people are getting great results running Mega Crop and nothing else. 22 lbs for $56 is hard to beat.

Hi Upnsmoke13,
Are your seeds fem or regular? If regular seeds, you will have to deal with sexing plant...but also gives you options regarding seeds and clone Mommas.

If you want short flowering , HHaze is not the answer, got some flowering now
I have a Journal on the GPS forum
I’m sure they will be 80+ days

Of course the OP disappears.
Not disappeared! Was rolling down so fast, i just wrote it off!
I've been running Canna a&b with pretty good results. I have to fade the nutes to have any autumn colors, otherwise everything stays very green! I believe high nitrogen is the cause. I do like the simplicity of mixing a reservoir & letting it work.
Would either of the others be just as easy AND have at least as good of results? My environment is pretty controlled & dialed.
As far as the strains, they are bought & paid for! May not be the best of the best but its what i got. I'm looking for some good smoke but would like to have something that would ripen a little sooner! I'm not a med patient, just like a good buzz!
I'd like to stay as "KISSable" as possible. I love being around the plants but don't want time away from my wife.
I'd like to use what i have on hand before buying more stuff, unless the Megacrop is really worth it! Thanks for looking & suggesting!

All are regs. Will cull males & finish 2-4 girls. Plan is to fill a 2x4 tent, either scrog or trellis depending on number of females, to see what the tent will produce. I've been vegging in the tent then going to a 4x4 to finish but want to just do the tent this time!

I believe Mega to be worth it, I'd use what you have first though

Use the nutrients that you're most familiar and comfortable with. Choose two of the strains on your list and grow them out first. Take cuts before you flower, you might just find something worth keeping around. That may affect your decision to grow out the other strains right away, or to stash them away while you grow out the keepers.

The only nutes i have experience with is the Canna. Thats why I'm asking for suggestions. I started dtw with those & have harvested several plants. It seems that the plants start showing nute stress as flowering goes on. I'm looking for a solution other than lowering ppms. Last run, i started lowering the ppm's earlier than usual & ended with a healthier plant but less bulk. Maybe i haven't found that sweet spot??
I liked the thought of lowering nitrogen, at least in flower, like the Maxi stuff. But also read a lot of good things about Mega.
