Lettuce...cool. I'm going to grow some lettuce in my veg room just for the fuck of it. Seeds have been sprouted for the outdoor garden, but there will be extras.

I succesfully used 24/0 with tomatoes, chili, basil and eruca sativa.

After growing, basil reacted poorly to 24/0 light (it prefers 18/6), so I think 24/0 is good only for germination..

I also tryed some old flowers seeds and they didn't germinated.
I don't know if it is because they are old or if flowers need less light.

What veggies?

I think it would be a great help if you googled "Non flowering plants" and "Flowering plants"

I was just looking for the best photo period for tomato's and the consensus is 14 hours. Anything more or less does not increase yields. Since tom.'s are monoecious, you need to handle pollination by hand or by fan unless you have bees in your grow room. 20 hours is the suggested ideal for sweet peppers. Anything more or less does not increase yields. Small leafy greens can take constant light from the bit of reading I have done.
