Autoflower 12/12 1000w or 20/4 150w

I got 4 feminized plants I'm gonna veg to 18-24" then flower under my 1000w hps was wondering If I should throw my fifth plant under there with them it's an auto flower. Would it do better on 12/12 under a 1000w hps or 20/4 under 100-150w of fluorescent lighting? Or should I do 12 hours under hps then when lights off bring it in the room with fluorescents for 8 hours?

Oh and it's a nl x bb auto

p.s. With only 4 plants (5 with autoflower) I feel like 1000w may be overkill, and if not how big should I veg these 4 until

autos should always be 20/4 or 18//6 if youve got 1000 watt grow females regulars not so hard on electric and bigger yields

I am growing 4 regular females, but I am worried that the 1000w may be to much light for that small of a number of plants, also I got this auto flower seed free so It's sprouted now and just wondering if I should grow it 12/12 with my females under the 1000w or if I should grow it 20/4 under 100-150w of fluorescents because of the lighting schedule

It shouldn't be too much light as long as you don't place to the plants. The auto should be under at least least 16 hours of light to make the yield worth your while.

Put it with your others for 12 hours or so, and rotate it to the cfl.
