For succulents, your plant light should ideally provide a brightness of around 2,000 to 3,000 lumens, and the light should be positioned close to the plants—about 6 to 12 inches away. You’ll want to use a full-spectrum grow light that mimics sunlight, ideally with a color temperature between 5,000K to 6,500K, which replicates daylight. This helps your succulents thrive indoors, as they need bright, direct light to maintain their compact growth and vibrant color.

I would recommend taking a look at these articles on the subject, as they will have much of the information that you are requesting.
