Ok #FreeBSD hivemind I need some help with a cron job I have for renewing my certbot certificates.
If I type crontab -l It gives me the following output which I thought was right but it doesn't seem to run automatically even though cron is running.

52 0,12 * * * root /usr/local/bin/certbot renew --renew-hook 'service nginx reload'
I thought it should run minute 52 past hour 0 and 12 but maybe I'm wrong ?
What does everyone else use for renewing their certs ?
If I run this manually it works and a quick certbot certificates shows they have indeed been updated.


/usr/local/bin/certbot renew --renew-hook 'service nginx reload'
Any ideas ??
