When growing Autos, do folks still have a Veg nutes schedule and a Flower nutes schedule?
I'm assuming you cut down on the Nitrogen once flowers begin to show?

In my garden I don't treat the two very differently. I switch to bloom nutes (or add PK to the base in my case) about 2 weeks after the flip. With autos, I just read the plant's growth. Plants finish getting taller at around 21-24 days post flip, or so says the research. So I like having some extra PK in the res when they start showing preflowers. Used to switch to bloom nutes at day 21 or so. Both timings yielded jars.
With autos, the timing disregards the "flip" obviously and I just go on the growth rate.
If I had to approach a tent and had no idea when it was flipped, or if it was an auto tent, I would just watch for the stretch to stall and switch it up.
Also, remember that we've seen awesome grows with just base nutrients. Canna A/B and MegaCrop are 2 lines that I can comfortably say from experience don't NEED a booster.

I just start feeding veg nutes after 2 wks, lightly. Probably have a few veg feeds into week 5 then I switch to flower nutes. You'll find your veg nute lasts 2-3 times longer than bloom nutes

My auto's get exactly the same as my photo's,modern auto's grow pretty damn big and will happily take full feeding.
I totally disagree. It depends on the genetics and particular strain. Give some autos full strength ( recommended by manufacturer) will result in deficiencies, lockouts and ugly leaves. Some strains love full strength but many do not.
If a plant is big and ugly, I'm not impressed.
i use fox farm trio, never giving just water all ways grow big till the first stigmas, then switch to then switch to big bloom, then after i see buds forming i use big bud..i give them nutrients every 3 days, and i grow in fox farm ocean mix/// im growing northernlights and white widow...and if i go to 420seeds week by week pictures im 2 weeks ahead of what they say ...love it

Using FF Dirty Dozen, also FF Wholly Mackerel and Kelp Me Kelp You at the moment. Finally had used up my B.A.S. organic line, took 2 years. I got tired of constant battling fungus gnats, and had smaller yields with organics
I think following recommended dose by manufacturers is just stupid, I suppose your best friend is ec/ppm meter then you know exactly what is full dose or half a dose.
Quick example : I'm using with V8 in my mentoring grow greenbuzz nutrients, we check calmag for ppm/EC if I would follow recommended dose 2ml/L my ppm would be 70 does it mean that's full dose? To make it to ppm 300 I ended up adding 25ml/2L which according to manufacturer would be 12x more to their recommendations
