I just turned on the bigger light and moved my pepper starts to my one table to get ready for my tomato starts. I’ve been running 15 on 9 off for my schedule. What do you run your lights? And do you go full power? And how early do you start your peppers?

always 16:8. i heard you can go beyond that and even do 24/7, but theres diminished returns after 16 and really no point.
started chinenses Jan 30th and they go outside mid may.
Started all my peppers Jan 11th, they start at 12 hours a day and I increase it gradually until it matches the amount of light they will have when transplanted outside. Lights on full power the whole time. I will be planting outside early May.
Anything from 12-16 hours is fine. I do 12 to save money on electricity
