Auto flower??

I inherited some autoflower seeds, la diva and ak47. I have no idea about this kinda thing but have plenty of extra space at the moment and was wondering if anyone has any tips. I have 1200 w open in my grow, and about 14 seeds.
Questions,
What light schedule do they need, from seed at each stage?
Soil recomendations, nutrients?
any input is welcomed,

any light cycle works but 18-24 hours of light is the best. I would plant seeds in their final pots so that there is no transplant stress. Autos are nutrient sensitive so start at 1/2 strength - 1/4 strength and work your way up.

how many should i put under one 600W light. size pots for finishing in? thanks

3 gallon pots would be good for AF's - some people go larger but a lot of people argue with their limited lifespan that 3g is more than enough.
Stable autos will flower regardless of photoperiod, but a lot of people still give a dark period for a variety of reasons - reduced electricity usage being the most common.
Honestly think you could get away with 6-8 autos (especially la diva if they're the delicious seeds ones I've seen) under a 600w in 3 gallons, but you might get just as good of a yield off a few larger ones and try your luck w/ 5g pots...

Oh their veg period is typically pretty short too, so try not to stress n stunt them at all - no overwatering , no transplanting (or at least be as careful as possible) and if you are gonna top them you gotta do if pretty early or yield will def take a hit from the recovery time...

Thanks ayrOn, extractly what i was looking for. will keep updated in journal and yes they are the La diva by delicious. i have 12. o and maybe this is a stupid question but they should all be female? or no?

Np man - yeah I believe that strain is only available in feminized seeds. Check some seedbanks to verify

Awesome just found 2 lowrider as well. guess were gunna have a few different auto strains.

keep light on them for as long as possible to maximize there growth before they flower. if you do this you up the yield you'll end up getting
