I have 4 plants (3 - 6 inches) under an T5 8 bulb (40,000 lumens i bealive) fluorescent and I just bought the 500w blackstar L.E.D, It was highly recomended for flowering stage. 2 of the the plants growing are auto flowering. Should I replace the fluorescent with the Blackstar led now, or wiat for them to start flowering????

Up to you really, replace now or use both at the same time all the way through. Or what I would do if I were u is use t5 to veg more plants while the led flowers. But then again, I stopped using t5s once I fully converted to led for all stages

Since you already bought the Blackstar, I suggest a test; buy some aquarium T 5 bulbs (see Pr0fesseurs thread here LED Without LEDs My First T 5 Grow) for which to buy. I'm betting you will wish you had not purchased any LED
