I am growing the following: Radishes Carrotes Leaf lettuce Peanuts and tomatoes, My question to you is: What kind of light cycle should I have them on? I currently have them on 12/12, but don't know if this is enough of not. Also, for the "root crops" (radishes, carrots), how do I know when they're done? Usually you'd go by the time of year, but they are indoor, so do I just count the days?
