Well with a 16.64% increase in difficulty and another 15% or so that might be coming in the next jump, solo mining is getting to be ridiculous odds......   never the less I will run my little S5 at half rate, just for fun.....
I'd say solo mining has been ridiculous odds for years so it's really nothing different on that front; it's still a gamble - high risk for potentially high rewards (and a little exciting too.)
My question is with my 50ths and If I will rent 130THs for 100-200h should I start with all the max ths 180ths from the beginning or is it better to start first with 50THS that I have from my miners leave it for some weeks or months and then do a push with 130THS from renting for 100-200hours.
It doesn't matter how you spread out your hashing, your chance of finding a block is simply related to the total hashes. However as Mike pointed out
The longer you wait, the higher the network difficulty will be.
This is the main risk you take if you spread your hashes beyond the current difficulty period, and diff will continue to rise for some time yet.

I will point all my THS to my only one of my btc adress: 192FAn5iGZiang9B6WAd9Vsx5Uzq64Rpp5 I will not spread. What did you mean about spread.?
I know it's better to have them all together at one worker one BTC address all the hash I have.

I will config my miners that I own and the hash that I will rent with the following config as you can see here in my example.

example:
url: de.ckpool.org:3333
username: 192FAn5iGZiang9B6WAd9Vsx5Uzq64Rpp5
pwd: none

Thanks
