"Making sure your autoflowering cannabis strains have enough nutrients is a fairly straight forward process, but it is worth remembering that they do not require as much as conventional strains, so whatever you give them, do it lightly.
To begin with, your seedlings will need nothing but water. Once your cannabis plants have been growing for about 2 weeks, you can start adding in extra growth nutrients, but do so sparingly, slightly increasing the amount each time until they are about 6 weeks old, (then remain constant).
Once your autos have been flowering for about a week, switch over a nutrient feed that has a better suited to flowering. This is done a week into the flowering process because autos will often continue to flesh out for about a week into the flowering process. Supporting this continued growth tends to result in better overall yields.
Once again, bear in mind that autoflowering cannabis strains do not really need the same level of nutrition as their photoperiod counter parts, so you can go easy to begin with until you get a better feel for their requirement. As with all varieties of cannabis, the actual needs can vary quite a bit strain to strain, so don’t be afraid to adjust your feed if your gut is telling you to."

feed per bottle instructions but half strength or organic style to avoid the issues

I fed autos this summer as high as 1200 PPM in veg. 900 in flower. Lucas formula and no problems. No nute burn.

Ok that what I’ve been doing now is very light feedings. 2ML calmag/ 2ML Flora micro/ 4Ml of Flora bloom for 1 gallon distilled water should I add the Flora grow
