First breeding season, need help planning

Ok, my sig has been updated and I basically want to know what to breed with what. Obviously if my female mojo gets over 1500g I will breed her and try for BELs. If my spider gets to 1500g I am going to try for bees. I doubt the cinny could get up to weight for breeding, he is a great eater and I still have 4 months or more so he could potentially get up there, so something to consider I guess.

Anyway, my normals are as follows: two of my big ones are kinda light with some good blushing, and the other is very granite like in appearance:

She was sold to me as a hold back. Does she look like a genetic granite or just an interesting normal? As much as I am loathe to ask that question I am curious. I've done a lot of comparing her to examples online and some she looks quite similar, but others not so much, and I know that granite is a morph that sometimes just randomly pops up and isn't genetic.

Which male (ghost, pastel, mojo or possibly cinny should go with which)? I was thinking the mojo since they tend to have the highest market value and I just really like the morph, but my male pastel is really rocking so trying for a few more good pastel females with the lighter colored breeders makes sense. And I am not sure what kind of hypo I want to get, but it may be worth breeding him and holding on to a female 100% for when I do decide which hypo morph I want to pursue. I am really not sure which male to pair with my granitey looking female. If it is at all genetic which morph would it enhance the most ya think? I honestly don't know.

For my other two normals, one has really nice banding and the other is as plain a normal as anyone could hope for ;) . These I think I will mate with the mojo.

Now, if both the cinny and pastel get up to weight I am definitely trying for albino het cinnies, but that may be a long shot.

So for the normals I was thinking ideally: the lightest and one with the most blushing is bred to the pastel, one bred to the ghost (the other light and blushy one), and the other 3 to the mojo. Unless someone has a better suggestion on what to breed to my granite like girl, I'd love an answer for that.

Well I put my mojo male with a 2200g normal female today and I am lime 95% sure I saw a lock. It seemed they didnt like being disturbed. I am going to leave him in there another day then give them a break.

Yeah but I was curious since i've heard of people breeding year round and they were both a good size so I decided to give it a go and see if anything happens.

For the rest of them I'm going to wait.
