I'm here now and then. But I've moved in with the lady recently and I've been busy, and also trying to keep a low profile on the "weed" websites :) Missed ya and the guys @TheStickMan
To add: Starwberry Cough was an immense success. But I am not a big sativa fan. I would like to try a high CBD...
Posting for the first time in a while, I will try to answer your question as good as I can:
1) I've been using root riot/stone wool cubes/peat moss. It doesn't matter as long as there is no heavy concentration of nutrients in the medium

Wow you've got some quality cobs and nice plans for the future :D I have 4 old COBs: 2 x Cree CXA 3050 3000K and 2 x Vero 18 4000K and I'm adding in 2 x brand new Nichias (I need to check the series, but I know for a fact that they are top bin) that are 5000K and 2700K

I currently run two Vero 18 4000K and two CXA 3050 3000K all of them at 1400mA in a 2 feet by 2 feet area
I have a couple of Nichia NCSLJ216A that are going unused. One 2700K and one 5000K
