Starting 4-6 Autos Need Help!

[A 1]

Helllo ALL! New to the forum and need some noob help. Im looking to auto flower 4-6 plants. i have a 1,000watt HPS 140,000 lumens and a T5 6 bulb with 6,500k output and around 17,000 lumens. which one would u think would work best? should i look into purchasing a different light or more lights? i am planning a 18/6 or 20/4 sleep schdule for them. ALSO was wondering about some info about the nutrients in auto flowering plants. any help is help! thank you!

Id start them in their final pots under the t5 till they get like 3 nodes high and then put me under the 1000

i was under the impression i only had to use 1 light? i can use both if i have to. was also wondering the tempature to keep the autos at through-out the grow? any help is help! thank you!

Im not saying use both at the same time just start them under the smaller light as the 1000 might be a tad intense for them at such a young stage. Also id keep autos at any normal temp id say like 68 to 75 should be ok

To me nutes are nutes man it don't really matter too much I've ran sensi bloom a and b and loved it.I used fox farms line it was good .floranova was the shot for a while now I make a super soil and run all my leftover nutes for the coco plants
