I'm growing vegetables and herbs with LED lights inside.

Where can I find a list of recommended lighting values (uMol per square foot) for a long list of plants that I might want to grow?

For instance, I've found recommendations for basil (500) and lettuce (50-100). I don't know how much light I should have for cilantro, tarragon, mustard greens, strawberries, scallions, mint, and several other things I might want to grow.

I use LED 5000K brightness lamps for my sprouting station. I believe anywhere in the 5000-6500K is appropriate for green growth. My starters for squash, tomatillos, strawberries, etc are all very happy and growing like weeds under my lamps.
