I was wanting advice on growing barney farms pineapple express auto. I will be using cfls an have different variety of them I know cfls aren't the best but I am on a budget and am not expecting a lot of bud off of each seed.

How often should I water?
What are the best nutrients from experience auto flower growers?
And any other info would be greatly appreciated

nutes - depends what soil you're using but about 3 weeks start feeding
water - depends how big of pots but just let soil dry between watering
any good quality nutes, fox farm, bio thrive.
auto flowers are easy to grow not much you have to do. keep the light 20 or 24 hours if you can, and change to flowering nutes after you see it start flowering, pretty simple.
 
I dont think i can on mobile? So If I am using happy frog what nutrients can I buy at Lowes or Home depot that you have had the best luck with
 
If any has any helpful information on growing autoflowers such as nutrients I can get at lowes or home depot, how many watts of cfl are needed per a plant an whn does a auto flower really start to take off? Ect.

Autos really won't need anything thru veg and if they do it should only be a tiny bit as most good soils should carry seedlings thru to preflower stage when you switch cfls and start your bloom nutes then. After the 1st set of true leaves are spread and hittin the second i start feedings of a good root stimulator ,a drop of calmag and if needed around week 3-4 a drop of nitrogen until maybe week 4-5 pending strain when I start bloom nutes. Keep your lights 24/7 since your on cfls and switch your blue/white cfls for yellow/orange 2700k ones when you switch to flower and start the bloom nutes then. In my experience anything less then 250w of CFL per plant is useless plus upsetting and frustrating for the grower :) . Good luck
 
So at the beginning I just need cfls that are high in kelvins like the white 5k-7k then when i add bloom nutrients switch to lower kelvins like 2700k
