Fluval 3.0 light scheduling suggestions for 20g long planted tank

[Amiya]

Recently got a 20 gallon long aquarium a couple weeks ago and the Fluval 3.0 finally arrived yesterday, I plan on getting a lot of plants today to see which plants work best in my water

But I have no idea what to set my lights to in the beginning, I tried making a schedule and it’s down below 

I watched Bentley Pascoe’s videos on the Fluval 3.0 and he said you should start with about half the actual intensity you want and then bump it up every two week, I’d like my white lights to max out at 50%, blue at 5% and pink at 45% or 50%

Would y’all say this is a good starting point?

Any advice is appreciated, thank you in advance! 🙂
