Myself I am not a believer in 2 or 3 part fertilizer mixes or pre loaded soils.
I use a mix of 50% Vermiculite and 50% Peat Moss
with 40 grams of Dolomite lime per gallon of mix.
and 10 grams of Gypsum pellets per gallon of mix.
This is a type of hydroponic grow in media. A lot like growing in Coco
without some of the issues. And it's a great way to go as you can use any liquid fertilizer you can buy
I use Schultz Orchid Fertilizer 15-5-5.
10 drops per litre of water.
You will need a P.H pen so you can PH your fertilizer solution 6.5
My water runs around 8 and it takes about 13 drops of ph down pr litre to acquire a 6.5 plus or minus a point.
I grow both outdoors and indoors.
My latest indoor project although it's a photo not an auto you should get an Idea about my grow space.

After growing a monster Buddha last summer I wanted to try a mini Buddha. As my indoor setup is only 24" X 24" about 40" tall. I prefer to grow one plant at a time rather than stuff my grow space. Light is an older Mars 300 60 LED at 24". Soil. Recipe came from a Dr Bruce Bugbee video. 50 / 50...

The 3 big things when growing autos are
1) They are hungry so start feeding as soon as the seedling comes threw the ground.
2) They are easy to over water. You must water enough to keep them but not over do it and stunt the plant.
3) Proper light placement. Don't over do it with a powerful light and stress or burn the plant.
This should give you a little something to think about.
