Answer to Question 1

Divide the crop into 5 lighting zones. Light one zone at a time for a short
duration of perhaps 6 minutes or less. When all zones have been lighted recycle
through the zones. Continue to do so between 10 pm and 2 am.

Answer to Question 2

Rate of development depends on the average day plus night temperature.
When selecting day and night temperatures be sure their average stays constant.
