So as it turns out, when I setup my Apex I just kinda got the job done, and now I'm pretty much clueless on making any changes. 

 

I've started adjusting my light times, and here's how I'm doing it:

I run x4 T5's, and x3 Led boxes

Originally I had the x3 LED's turn on at 10am, and off at 10pm.

The T5's kicked on at 12pm, and then off at 5pm. 

 

While everything seems to be doing just fine, I feel like that's a lot of light for a long period of time, and I wanted to soften "sunrise & sunset" by utilizing the T5s. Here's the question: How can I have the T5's setup for two times a day? 

 

I've changed my lighting schedule for the T5's to be the first lights that come on (10am-7pm)

BUT what I'd like to do is have the T5's turn on from 10am-1pm, and then 8pm-10pm again.

Set the Control Type to "Advanced" and add a line "If Time 20:00 to 22:00 Then ON" to the commands that are probably in the box:

 

Fallback ON
Set OFF
If Time 10:00 to 13:00 Then ON
If Time 20:00 to 22:00 Then ON

If Tmp > 81 Then OFF
Min Time 001:00 Then OFF

 

I'd probably set Fallback to OFF as well so that if the EB8 loses contact with the head unit it wont revert to turning the lights on.  Off is safer.

Amazing, thank you

Just in case anybody else needs help or is in a similar bind, here's a screen shot of what it looks like!
