 Autoflowering what nutrients

Recently I just ordered some Red Dwarfs from the Buddha breeder. Im not experienced what so ever with autoflowering.. currently Im using a hempy bucket setup in my grow log. its kind of like a poor man's hydro its a run to waste. What I have read from other posts was basically just use a 20/4 hr light cycle. The question I have is what nutrients should I use? do I need to just use my regular veg nutes like im doing for my photoperiod plants or just go straight to flowering? the nutes I have are Flora Nova, Flora Bloom, Floralicious plus, Flora Blend and Kool Bloom. The lighting I plan to use are my T5's. Any Suggestions or anything into this matter would be very appreciated.. thanks!

All I have read about autos seem to say that 18/6 is the best lighting schedule. And if it were me, I would go with veg nutes for a week and switch to flower nutes. I believe most autos go a week or two in veg before starting flowering so I would assume it would benefit from the veg nutes.

I would put organic nitrogen in the soil before planting and then water with flowering nutes.

Do like ya normally do for plants. When you see the plants switch to flowering then start the flowering nutrients.

for autos i dont use veg nutes because its such a short cycle usually. and start off with a little dose of flowering nutes because autos nute burn alot easier.

I've been currently using the genhydro.com calculator for my grow and things seem to be going great.. I just not sure what to do exactly. cause the plants are so small.. I feel confident going from my 330ppm to 560ppm after the 2nd week. would you guys recommend I go with say half the ppm in the flowering stages?
