Using 18/6 on mine. Nutrients for my hydro - turned out okay with 300ppm for first few weeks🤷 after they grew up some I went to 450 then 600ppm during flower. Around 700ppm right now but they haven't shown any signs of wrong doing. Maybe more could help but these numbers have worked so far for my first grow..... Btw I gave no nutrients to the rockwool I let the roots stretch down in to my resovour which was 300ppm
Yes, autoflowers still need nutrients. The main difference between autos and photoperiods is that the light cycle doesn't need to be changed for autos in order to initiate flowering. The nutrient requirements are the same.
personally i would still give nutrients ( possibly at weaker doses ? ) - unless you are using soil with nutrients already in - they seem to last about 3 months - and there is a soil called ( sohum ) that is based with nutrients and should last the entire grow - best of luck on your grow

Most breeders recommend 18/6. I have used that with good results and the one I have now is on 20/4 and they are also doing great.
I find that "less is more" watch your plans and adjust nutes accordingly.
