I have the time and room, but even Vic's supersoil recipe is problematic.
1 Bale sunshine mix #2 or promix (3.8 cu ft)
8 cups Bone Meal - phosphorus source
4 cups Blood Meal - nitrogen source
1 1/3 cups Epsom salts - magnesium source
3-4 cups dolomite lime -calcium source & pH buffering
1 tsp fritted trace elements
4 cups kelp meal.
9kg (25 lbs) bag pure worm castings
I can't get bale sunshine mix and fritted trace elements. Reason why I gave up on my own super soil mix is because I asked multiple sources for these items, searched around the web and I have to ship it from somewhere else. Since you guys say plagron is bad, I don't know which soil is good anymore. I don't know what is a good quality product, since I read up both good and bad things about any soil that is on the market.
Can I use bone meal that is used to feed fish, if the product is pure blood meal without additives?
It looks to me as if this is your first grow. Do not bother with the uvb. IF you want to increase the quality of your grow there are many other things you can improve on before uvb. Why not include UVB bulbs if I can afford them?
Also is it bad if I want to simulate real sun movement more and do a flowering of 11,5 hours light (+6 hours UVB in the middle), and shorten it each week to eventually a 10/14 in the end?
Is growing period of 16/8 rather than 18/6 bad as well? I am not interested in yields, but a good taste and potent buds with a balanced mix of cannabinoids.
as far as good genetics go (not sure if you want only nl5xhaze) i am a great fan of bodhi, karma and archive. I know bodhi made his version of nl5.
I have these readily at my disposal:

As with soils and basically anything else, I found both good and bad reviews for any breeder. "These guys were good, but now Neville isn't working for them anymore and they don't care about the genetics like they used to," and similar discouraging opinions all over the internet.
