I am running a flood and drain table with a 15 gallon reservoir under one 600 watt hps light in a 4 x 4grow tent. I decided to create a side rez with some new strains I obtained with Roots Organics cocofiber as the medium. I have the Botanicare lineup: Pure Blend Pro, Liquid Karma, Silica Blast. I also have Nitrozime, Superthrive, Floralicious plus pineapple rush, B.C. Cal-Mag Plus, and that is all. What would be a good mixture for clones that have been in the coco for a week under a daily watering cycle? Should I go full blast, or is there enough nutrients in the coco to last a while?btw the clones are in dixie cups until i can afford more cocofiber

coco fiber wont hold any nutrients, and you definetely dont want to add clones to your regular table or they will burn for sure. You'll want to go straight up water (maybe some rooting nutrients, balance the pH still, keep the ppm low) until they start growing fast in the veg stage.

I use pure blend pro and some of the other nutes you listed. I'd go by what the bottle says and only give nutes every once a week and water a few times a day. I use a drip system and it waters it mostly when the lights are on. it only waters them once every hour or so often when the lights are off. If you keep your clones in dixe cups be sure not to let the water get stagnate in the bottom of the cups. I'd hold off on nutes unless you are seeing the leaves start to yellow. wait till the clone is about 4inches tall and has lots of roots.
