For starters, I don't know how you get from 1 or 2 to exit at 6.

playthroughs, using all the subrooms.
Sorry, my implication was that if I enter from 6 on my second entry, then I exit via 6 on my first exit.
Here's a more detailed account of how I did it:

Entry #1: Enter from #1. Enter the bomb/fuse subroom (subroom #1) and lure the goblin to follow me, trapping him in the center of the yellow door. Take mimic, use it in the upper-right corner to open exit door to subroom #1 (and also subroom #5). Enter subroom #5, hit all the orbs and get the second mimic. Place second mimic in subroom #7, striking orb to open exit #6. Exit.
Entry #2: Enter from #6. Enter subroom #6, clear tar, strike orb to open exit #4. Exit from exit #4.
Entry #3: Enter from #4. Enter subroom #4. Strand goblin behind hot tile on one pressure plate. allow briar to grow to other plate while I dance back and forth on the two hot tiles next to exit. Briar opens exit #3. Exit from exit #3.
Entry #4: Enter from #3. run circles around outside until wubbas are positioned so that goblin can get out. Enter subroom #3. Explode bomb, strike orb (open exit #2). Exit from #2.
Entry #5: Enter from #2. Enter subroom #2. Light fuse to strke orb and open exit #5. Exit from exit #5.
Entry #6: Enter from #5 (blue doors drop/raise). Enter subroom #5. Break walls, strike orbs, get mimic potion. Open exits to subroom #5 and #1. Enter subroom #1. Go up to get mimic potion. Place mimic potion in subroom #2 due north of orb that opens exit #1. Strike orb. Exit from exit #1.
I should note that I originally approached this room differently:

My assumption was that I would have to somehow use all the rooms and just go around counter-clockwise, since that's how the orbs seemed to be leading me. But I could never get subroom #7 to work for me at all (with all the wubbas). I kept getting trapped and couldn't figure out how to solve that. So I poked around and found that the orb that let me out of subroom 1 also let me into subroom 5, and then I looked around for orbs I could hit with a second mimic.
